A number of architectures proposed in literature have been categorized in three main categories and discussed in brief. These microgrids operate with renewable energy sources of very unpredictable nature, and therefore suitable robust control strategies are required. Different control strategies are reviewed in this chapter.
Several issues of individual microgrids (MGs) such as voltage and frequency fluctuations mainly due to the intermittent nature of renewable energy sources'' (RESs) power production can be mitigated by interconnecting multiple MGs and forming a multi-microgrid (MMG) system. MMG systems improve the reliability and resiliency of power systems, increase RESs''
The increasing impact of climate change and rising occurrences of natural disasters pose substantial threats to power systems. Strengthening resilience against these low-probability, high-impact events is crucial. The proposition of reconfiguring traditional power systems into advanced networked microgrids (NMGs) emerges as a promising solution.

Nevertheless, the technical challenges associated with the design, operation and control of Microgrids are immense. Equally important is the economic justification of Microgrids considering current electricity market environments and the quantified assessment of their benefits from the view of the various stakeholders involved.
One key aspect is the ability and promise to address environmental concerns that have been growing in recent years. Today the microgrid concept has exploded to include a variety of architectures of energy resources into a coordinated energy entity that its value is much greater than the individual components.
An hierarchical management architecture is proposed and functions for coordinated voltage/VAR control and coordinated frequency control are analyzed and simulated using realistic distribution net-works. The capability of Microgrids to provide black start services are used to provide restoration guidelines.
In a refreshingly simple way identifies the enabling technologies for microgrids, that is power electronics, communications, renewable resources. It discusses in simple terms the ability of microgrids to minimize green house gases, help the power grid with load balancing and voltage control and assist power markets.
Today the microgrid concept has exploded to include a variety of architectures of energy resources into a coordinated energy entity that its value is much greater than the individual components.
