Abstract
This project points out a brief overview of several concepts, as
Renewable Energy Resources, Distributed Energy Resources,
Distributed Generation, and describes the general architecture of an
electrical microgrid, isolated or connected to the Medium Voltage
Network. Moreover, the project focuses on a project carried out by
GRECDH Department in collaboration with CITCEA Department, both
belonging to Universitat Politécnica de Catalunya: it concerns isolated
microgrids employing renewable energy resources in two communities
in northern Peru. Several solutions found using optimization software
regarding different generation systems (wind and photovoltaic) and
different energy demand scenarios are commented and analyzed from an
electrical point of view. Furthermore, there are some proposals to
improve microgrid performances, in particular to increase voltage
values for each load connected to the microgrid. The extra costs
required by the proposed solutions are calculated and their effect on the
total microgrid cost are taken into account; finally there are some
considerations about the impact the project has on population and on
people's daily life.
