The MicroGrid concept assumes a cluster of loads and microsources (<100 kW) operating as a single controllable system that provides both power and heat to its local area. This concept provides a new paradigm for defining the operation of distributed generation. To the utility the MicroGrid can be thought of as a controlled cell of the power system. For example this cell
