    Why do microgrids use shared energy storage?

    This indicates that the shared energy storage model significantly reduces the microgrid's dependence on the grid while enhancing the utilization rate of energy storage. This is because SESS has lower power losses and costs, making microgrids more inclined to use energy storage systems when providing SESS services.

    How can a microgrid be controlled?

    Control of microgrid with a considerable number of distributed energy resources, small energy storage units, and electric vehicles require flexible and scalable control strategies.

    Why do we need a microgrid cluster?

    Due to the decreased demand for energy storage in the microgrid cluster, with the budget unchanged, the microgrid cluster increases the investment in self-built energy storage. It reduces the investment in leased energy storage to reduce the lifecycle cost of SES.

    Does a microgrid cluster reduce operational risks?

    Among them, the power and capacity configurations of self-built energy storage show a downward trend; the power and capacity configurations of leased energy storage keep increasing. This indicates that the microgrid cluster system reduces operational risks by increasing SES power and capacity configurations.
