Socio-Economic And Technological Impact Of A Microgrid In Isolated Communities Using Simulation Modeling

In this paper, we analyzed the impact that has a microgrid in isolated communities. The social appropriation of these systems involve aspects that go beyond of their operation and can put their sustainability at risk. Whereby, has increased interest in the development of analyzing methods for these solutions during the design stages, contributing to more accurate evaluations of their feasibility and impact. A simulation of an isolated microgrid is presented, which integrates the computational, energy and automation sublevels. Also, a Multi-agent System (MAS) was used to study the evolution of indices related to the affectation that the microgrid could generate in a community in environmental and economic terms. The MAS then analyzes the socio-technological interdependence in the operation of an isolated microgrid. The contribution aims to the comprehensive study of the performance of these projects and the economic, social, technological and environmental impacts on specific communities, which contribute to decision making in the design and implementation of these systems.
