We consider here a domestic microgrid equipped with a battery, an electrical hot water tank and a solar panel, as in Fig. 1. The microgrid is connected to an exter-nal grid to import electricity when needed. The battery stores energy when external grid prices are low or when the production of the solar panel is above the electrical demand.

Nowadays, the proliferation of distributed renewable energy sources is a fact. A microgrid is a good solution to self-manage the energy generation and consumption of electrical loads and sources from the point of view of the consumer as well as the power system operator. To make a microgrid as versatile as necessary to carry that out, a flexible inverter is necessary.

Some people use the term to describe a simple distributed energy system, such as rooftop solar panels. A key difference is that a microgrid will keep the power flowing when the central grid fails; a solar panel alone will not. Many homeowners with solar panels are unaware of this fact and are surprised that they lose power during a grid outage.
