A model-based study of DC microgrids for rural community electrification in Anambra State, Nigeria

Résumé

The growing need for various direct current (DC) sources and loads such as solar photovoltaic (PV) systems, batteries, wind power systems and fuel cells, increases the popularity of DC microgrids. These systems are important because they rapidly integrate with the electrical infrastructure. Anambra State, one of Nigeria's states, has many rural households without access to electricity. Energy solutions that happen to be revolutionary such as DC microgrids are indeed necessary. This point has been underscored. For this study, the schematic architecture of a standalone DC microgrid model is presented. It aims to find more ways that meet all specific needs for electrification in rural areas. It also gives the main factor behind developing DC microgrids for improved rural energy electrification. It highlights the numerous advantages of adopting DC microgrids such as improved energy efficiency, increased reliability, and enhanced compatibility with renewable energy sources and storage systems. Motivations for deploying DC microgrids in the rural electrical infrastructure located in Anambra State, Nigeria are explored. The future research directions will be the practical implementation of DC microgrids in a lab environment. The study advocates for the strategic deployment of DC microgrids which are expected to make a significant positive contribution to efforts aimed at improving rural electrification in Anambra State, Nigeria.
