4 Frequently Asked Questions about “What does PCC mean for microgrids - CAPTURED ENERGY SOLAR (PTY) LTD”

How do microgrids work?

Microgrids essentially consist of a collection of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs). When the buses that connect these DERs and loads are separated from the grid they form a local Energy Power System (EPS).

How to manage common line congestion in microgrids?

To manage common line congestion in multi-microgrids, there are two scenarios. In the first scenario, each microgrid is authorized to use 1/J of common line capacity. In the second scenario, a proposed model calculates the quota of each microgrid from the point of common coupling (PCC).

How does a local EPS connect to a microgrid?

When the local EPS connects to the grid, also known as the Area EPS it is done so through a point of common coupling (PCC) as shown in the diagram. The PCC is usually a breaker, relay and/or inverter which is controlled to synchronize the microgrid and its DERs to the EPS (grid) before a connection is made.

What is the PCC library?

The library contains pre-engineered function blocks for controlling the PCC between the utility grid and a power generation source. It is designed to simplify interconnection control and solve common interconnection issues. Questions? Contact Us!
