DC Micro-Grid: A Concept Which Has The Potential To Solve Major Problems

The document discusses DC micro-grids which have the potential to solve major problems. A DC micro-grid is a localized grouping of DC electricity generation, energy storage, and loads that normally operates connected to a traditional centralized grid. DC micro-grids eliminate AC-DC conversion, allow for zero net energy goals, and provide flexibility. They can increase energy efficiency, drive renewable energy use, and be easily relocated. Potential applications of DC micro-grids include large commercial buildings, telecom/data centers, and unelectrified villages.
