Distribution-connected and behind-the-meter distributed energy resources (DERs), including generation and energy storage systems, are being increasingly integrated into electrical power systems. Microgrids help leverage these DERs to keep the power on when the normal supply is unavailable (e.g., due to faults or equipment outages). These systems, however, present unique protection challenges to detect and respond to faults. This report describes some challenges and 6 potential solutions for microgrid protection.
