Abstract
Campus microgrid is composed of distributed energy resources (DER) including distributed generation (DG), controllable loads, and storage. In this paper, the role of high reliability distribution system (HRDS) in microgrid operations is evaluated. The HRDS implemented at Illinois Institute of Technology (IIT) is used as a case study along with DER to increase the load point reliability and decrease the operation cost of the microgrid.
