Assessing feasibility studies on smart microgrid systems a global review and methodological comparison for implementing microgrids in Malaysia

This paper serves as a comprehensive review of past feasibility studies conducted worldwide on smart microgrid systems. The primary focus of microgrids lies in the generation of electricity using micro sources, such as micro-hydro, photovoltaic, or biomass gasifiers. These generated power is then di...
