microgrids and distributed energy resources

Microgrids refer to small-scale, localized electricity systems that can operate independently or in conjunction with the main power grid. They provide power to a specific area or building and can integrate various sources of energy, such as solar panels, wind turbines, batteries, and generators. Distributed energy resources (DERs) are the individual units or technologies that contribute to the overall functioning of microgrids. DERs include renewable energy sources, energy storage systems, and demand response devices that enable a more decentralized and efficient energy generation and consumption.
