4 Frequently Asked Questions about "Microgrid Standardization Committee"

Why is standardization important for DC microgrids?

Standardization plays a non-trivial role. In this process, specifying product and installation standards, testing techniques, and certification rules for DC appliances are important to promote DC technology and enjoy the energy-saving benefits of DC microgrids. The development of DC-specific protection standards also lags behind that of AC.

What are technology standards for DC microgrids in buildings?

We review technology standards for DC microgrids in buildings from the perspective of DC voltage levels, protection techniques, power electronic devices, metering, various sources, storage, and loads. The need for additional or improved standards for DC microgrids in buildings is also recognized.

How many international microgrid standards are there?

1)There are only two published international microgrid standards(IEEE 1547.4 and IEC 62257 series), and their content is limited and not systematic. 2)Microgrid cannot use the current DER integration standard :DER standards require automatic and rapid disconnection of all DER during grid outages.

Should standardization of microgrid be coordinated with smart grid?

Standardization of microgrid should be coordinated with that of smart grid. 2012 First proposed to construct international standards on microgrid in Oslo IEC General Meeting. A new work item proposal is approved after a 3 months commenting and voting period. CDV is submitted for circulated for three-month voting period.
