An Introduction to Microgrid Systems — Mayfield Renewables

This microgrid system has two backup behaviors: full facility and partial backup. During full-facility backup, non-sheddable loads (see ''Microgrid Agg.'' panel), as well as the sheddable loads

Microgrid Overview

In terms of microgrid design, this means that the microgrid does not have to be built to serve power 24/7, but instead can be built to provide power during times the main electric grid experiences an outage

The United States Department of Energy Microgrid Exchange Group defines a microgrid as "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. A microgrid can connect and disconnect from the grid to enable it to operate in both grid-connected or island-mode."
