Abstract (en)
Context: Microgrids have been gaining space and credibility in terms of research and real applications. Technological maturity and new regulations have allowed these types of systems to position themselves as a real alternative to increase the coverage of the energy service and improve its quality. One of the biggest challenges of microgrids is the management of resources and their synchronization with conventional grids. In order to overcome the inconvenience of synchronizing and managing the components of a microgrid, research on management systems has been conducted, which usually consist of a set of modules and control strategies that manage the available resources. However, these studies have not reached unanimity on the best method to perform these tasks, which is why it is necessary to perform a systematic collection of information and clearly define the state of research in energy systems management for this type of network.
Method: Based on the above, a systematic mapping was carried out in this article, wherein a significant number of papers that have contributed to this area were compiled. Taxonomies were generated based on the nature of the variables collected. These variables correspond to the data or information that enters and/or leaves the microgrid management system, such as meteorological variables, power, priority loads, intelligent loads, economic, operating states, and binary outputs.
Conclusions: It was observed that, despite the advances in studying different techniques and strategies microgird control and management, other factors that may affect performance have not been covered in a relevant way, such as the nature of variables and microgrid topology, among others.
Abstract (es)
Contexto: Las microrredes eléctricas han venido ganando espacio y credibilidad a nivel de investigación y aplicaciones reales. La madurez tecnológica y las nuevas regulaciones han permitido que este tipo de sistemas se posicionen como una alternativa real para aumentar la cobertura del servicio de energía y mejorar su calidad. Uno de los mayores retos de las microrredes es la gestión de los recursos y su sincronización con la red convencional. Con el fin de superar el inconveniente de sincronizar y gestionar los componentes de la microrred, se ha investigado sobre sistemas de gestión, los cuales normalmente consisten en un conjunto de módulos y estrategias de control que administran los recursos disponibles. Sin embargo, estas investigaciones no han llegado a una unanimidad sobre el mejor método para realizar estas tareas, por lo cual se hace necesario realizar una recopilación sistemática de información y definir claramente el estado de la investigación en gestión de sistemas de energía para este tipo de redes.
Método: Con base en lo anterior, en este artículo se realizó un mapeo sistemático, donde se recopiló un importante número de artículos que han aportado a este campo. Se generaron taxonomías basadas en la naturaleza de las variables que se recopilaron. Dichas variables corresponden a los datos o información que entran y/o salen del sistema de gestión de la microrred, tales como variables meteorológicas, potencia, cargas prioritarias, cargas inteligentes, económicas, estados de operación y salidas binarias.
Conclusiones: Se observa que, a pesar de los avances en el estudio de las diferentes técnicas y estrategias de control y gestión de microrredes, no se han cubierto de forma relevante otros factores que pueden afectar al rendimiento, como la naturaleza de las variables y la topología de la microrred, entre otros.
