A DC microgrid typically consists of distributed energy resources, bidirectional power electronic converters, DC buses, protection and isolation devices, and supervisory control systems. Low-voltage DC microgrids are one of promising technologies to support the clean growth industrial strategy set by the UK government, and the sustainable development goals by United Nations. In fact, we are now witnessing a proliferation of DC equipment associated with renewable energy sources. DC microgrids are localized energy systems operating from a DC bus within a defined voltage range. These systems can vary greatly in size and power, from small islands with several motors on a shared DC bus up to large-scale applications, such as entire factories or data centers with combined loads. Our infographic covers the definition, key components and advantages of DC microgrids and DER systems, emphasizing their role in promoting energy efficiency, sustainability and reliability.
