This paper proposes a novel structure and control scheme for interconnecting multiple standalone microgrids to a common alternating current (AC) bus using back-to-back converters. The method enhances the feasibility of hybrid MGs by reducing power loss on ILBCs. The MG has been modeled with solar and wind generators. The MG comprises multiple direct. . A French–Moroccan research group has developed a two-stage hierarchical techno-economic model to optimize AC multi-bus microgrids in remote areas. This microgrid configuration is more complex than that of standalone systems but offers several advantages in terms of cost efficiency and energy. . IEEE distribution system is proposed.
