    Abstract

    This thesis deals with reliability and power quality improvement in autonomous microgrids. The reliability is improved through the interconnection of storage, intertying two neighbouring microgrids and interlinking of microgrids cluster through a common power exchange highway. The power quality is improved by interconnecting distributed static compensator (DSTATCOM) in the microgrid. All the proposed methods are verified through extensive digital computer simulation using PSCAD.
