Abstract
A method for managing a microgrid network under a blackout condition. The method may include partitioning the microgrid network into a plurality of clusters. The method may also include determining a virtual inertia value for each of the plurality of clusters. The method may further include classifying the plurality of clusters based on corresponding virtual inertia values. In addition, the method may include performing a black-start operation by employing a Tower of Hanoi concept to restore power to the microgrid network. According to certain embodiments, performance of the black-start operation may take into account the virtual inertial values.
