Abstract

Enhancements in the life style and development of new technologies and gadgets that utilize electricity is increasing the demand for broadening the electricity productions. The available fossil fuels used as energy production fuels are depleting with time. For this reason, a shift is required to produce power from conventional to reuse natural green energy. Intermittent in production of energy is the only hindrance producing high efficiency and sustainable energy. Different control strategies have practiced to achieve a balanced and high efficiency from these microgrids. These control strategies have coped to cover intermittent in the generation and operations of these microgrids, but even though a way far to achieve sustainability. In this paper, we have selected some recent fuzzy logic control schemes that addresses the issues and remedial system to overcome losses in the generation and operations of these microgrids. Fuzzy logic is simpler to handle and can easily handle complex analogy with decision making ability. Finally, a comparative analysis based on these fuzzy control schemes is presented.
