This study looks into the integration of green energy sources within distribution networks, focusing specifically on the potential and advantages of microgrids. By examining the aggregation and interconnection of green micro-sources and loads through power electronics, the research aims to enhance the accessibility, usability, stability, and durability of power systems. Key areas of investigation include contemporary balance control techniques, real and reactive power regulation, and current allocation strategies. The study culminates in the development of a comprehensive microgrid model in MATLAB/Simulink, encapsulating all power sources, power electronics, loads, and mains models.

The hybrid system demonstrated improved efficiency and reliability in power supply by integrating renewable energy sources.
The microgrid (MG) controller successfully ensured seamless transition to island mode during grid outages, maintaining stability and reliability.
Simulation results validated that the MG system could effectively meet power demands, showcasing the potential for sustainable and affordable electricity provision.
The study highlighted the significant real-world application potential of MG systems in enhancing grid stability and sustainability through local renewable energy sources.
