Microgrids: What are they and how do they work?
A microgrid is exactly what it sounds like: a compressed version of the larger electrical grid that powers our country. The electrical grid exists to supply our electricity demand, ensuring the two are balanced and connecting electrical supply to electrical demand with the transmission and distribution system. In practice, a microgrid works in
