    plants, are connected directly to the transmission networks. As the grid penetration and power level of the wind turbines increase steadily, the wind power starts to have significant impacts to the power grid system. Therefore, more advanced generators, power electronic systems, and control solutions have to be introduced to improve the characteristics of the wind power plant and make it more suitable to be integrated into the power grid. Meanwhile, there are also some emerging technology challenges,

    scaling’influenced by depth cues; Carrasco (1986), argued that visual channels are orientation and spatial-frequency specific after presenting the MLI to eight participants and observing a reduction on the illusion after exposure to a low spatial frequency grid. Although evidence questioning this claim has been presented in many studies (Carlson, Moeller, & Anderson, 1984) (García-Garibay & De Lafuente, 2015) (Zeman et al, 2014) (Zeman A. , Obst, Brooks, & Rich, 2013) where the illusion persists in images

In general, it is preferred to go for the extension of the existing grids but they are not always affordable the fact that most of the non-electrified regions in developing countries are located in remote and difficult areas, like hilly regions, forests, deserts and islands or even too far from the grid location, which demand huge investment for grid extension (leake

    systems, droop method, hierarchical control, ISA-95, microgrid (MG), parallel operation, smart grid (SG). I. INTRODUCTION A Microgrid is a scaled down version of the centralized power system that generates, distributes, and regulates the flow of electricity. It can operate either grid connected or islanded and, if required, can switch between the two [1]. The new electrical grid, also named smart grid (SG), will

    A single military base with its own energy resources or so-called “islanded micro grid operation” is based on the ability to operate independently from the larger electrical grid. In this case the power is produced on the base and can reliably maintain operations. Recent reports from the
