Microgrids: characteristics and emerging challenges

Microgrids have appeared as a feasible remedy for the energy sector and increase energy demand and climate change issues. These distributed energy networks combine local energy resources, advanced storage systems and intelligent management for independent work or communication with central networks. In this article, it is intended to examine the unique features and challenges of microgrids, highlight their flexibility in energy distribution, renewable integration, and a role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. With the progress of microgrids, research and development are very important to advance energy systems to a sustainable future.
