Application of small modular reactors in modern microgrids
Description
Energy supply is one of the most important concerns of every government, energy authority, and researchers to meet the growing regional energy demands. Microgrids have the potential to solve the problem of conventional power grid and offer sustainable decentralized power system. However, most of the current distributed generation within microgrid doesn't meet future energy demand expectations. SMR could an effective and a viable power generation source for modern microgrids to support future electricity demands. A comprehensive study is conducted on microgrid with SMR through electricity generation profiles, geographical and environmental assessment, as well as cost analysis using simulation practices and data analysis.
