Abstract

This chapter consists of two sections, ‘Modelling of DC Microgrids' and ‘Protection of DC Microgrids'. In the first section, the new developments in DC Microgrids are discussed. Then, the Modelling of renewable energy resources-based DC Microgrid using characteristics and mathematics equations of each component are presented and then they are simulated by MATLAB. Afterward, the fault analysis and fault current behavior of the studied DC Microgrid are investigated. In the second section, a method of protecting the DC Microgrid and locating the fault in different parts of the system is proposed. The proposed method protects DC Microgrid using localized protection devices. And, the effectiveness of the proposed protection method is validated in a DC Microgrid with ring configuration.
