Overview
• A unique architecture is developed that enables
interconnecting and sharing renewable energy sources
between homes in an inner city neighborhood using DC
microgrid and smart interconnected home concept in order
to drive down participant utility costs
• DC microgrid for home energy interconnection is
potentially less complex and less expensive to deploy,
operate and maintain however, faster protection is a key
element to ensuring resilience, viability and adoptability

Planned Future Work
• Obtain funding to build Community DC microgrids in Arkansas and Wisconsin
• Baseline original SSCB design using the above test set-up
• Order revised hardware SSCBs and validate fault discrimination using test set-up
• Implement fault isolator interface circuit and relay control logic
• Integrate protection into Microgrid and Home Energy Management Systems
• Test prototypes in lab-scale DC microgrid system
• Develop hardware packaging concept and find manufacturing partner
