What are the MCQs for smart grid?

This document contains a sample exam with multiple choice questions (MCQs) for the course "Smart Grid" for an Electrical Engineering program. The MCQs cover topics related to smart grid components, technologies, and concepts such as AMI, OMS, CDM, real-time pricing, phasor networks, GIS, IEDs, and more.

Should a microgrid be integrated with a utility grid?

To do this seamlessly, the microgrid should be integrated with the utility’s automation systems at the substation and distribution levels. By connecting a microgrid to the utility grid as a DER, you can help increase the role of renewables on the grid and improve grid resilience.

What is an intelligent Microgrid controller?

An intelligent microgrid controller determines the optimal times to consume, produce, store, or sell energy based on weather, predicted utility rates, and other factors. It allows you to use your own loads without paying peak rates from the utility and the option to sell excess power when available.

Why should you invest in a microgrid?

Enterprises are more motivated than ever to control energy costs and increase sustainability, while the utility grids they rely on grow more vulnerable due to aging infrastructure, extreme weather, and rising energy demand. A microgrid can help your organization achieve its goals and control its energy future – with or without capital investment.

What is controlled microgrid testing?

The controlled Microgrid testing depends on operational scenarios and several robustness metrics are proposed by researchers for those scenarios. It is useful to simulate operational scenarios and testing of designed controlled Microgrid. Any latest Phd topics for renewable energy control (Solar or wind)?

How does a fault affect a microgrid?

What approaches have been tried and what are their success rates. In a MicroGrid, a fault does not increase the inverter output but the output voltage is reduced and this is the only indication of a fault but the entire network sees essentially the same voltage.
