Microgrid definition

Microgrid means a group of interconnected loads and
Microgrid means a group of interconnected loads and distributed energy resources within clearly defined electrical boundaries that acts as a single controllable entity in a larger electrical grid and that can connect to and disconnect from the larger grid to operate in either grid-connected or isolation mode. [PL 2021, c. 358, §2 (NEW); RR 2021, c. 1, Pt. A, §40 (RAL).]
Microgrid means a group of interconnected loads and distributed energy resources within clearly defined electrical boundaries that acts as a single controllable entity with respect to the electric distribution system and that connects and disconnects from the electric distribution system to enable it to operate when both connected to, or independent of, the electric distribution system.

More Definitions of Microgrid

Microgrid. – means a collection of interconnected loads, generation assets, and advanced control equipment, installed across a limited geographic area and within a defined electrical boundary that is capable of disconnecting from the larger Electric Distribution System. A Microgrid may serve a single customer with several structures or serve multiple customers. A Microgrid can connect and disconnect from the distribution system to enable it to operate in both interconnected or island mode.
Microgrid means a group of interconnected loads and Distributed Energy Resources within clearly defined electrical boundaries that acts as a single controllable entity that can connect and disconnect from the Electric Power Grid to enable it to operate in either grid-connected or off-the-grid (islanded) mode.
Microgrid means an interconnected system of loads and energy resources, including, but not limited to, distributed energy resources, energy storage, demand response tools, or other management, forecasting, and analytical tools, appropriately sized to meet customer needs, within a clearly defined electrical boundary that can act as a single, controllable entity, and can connect to, disconnect from, or run in parallel with, larger portions of the electrical grid, or can be managed and isolated to withstand larger disturbances and maintain electrical supply to connected critical infrastructure.
Microgrid means technology that:
Microgrid means a group of interconnected electrical supply
Microgrid means a group of interconnected loads and distributed
Microgrid means a group of interconnected loads and distributed energy resources within clearly defined electrical boundaries that acts as a single controllable entity with respect to the grid and that connects and disconnects from such grid to enable it to operate in both grid-connected or island mode.
