How Microgrids Mitigate the Challenges of Electricity Market Deregulation in Southeast Asia

There is a growing trend of deregulation of electricity markets in Southeast Asia across generation and retail. In this evolving electricity market structure, smart control automation solutions allow for bi-directional electricity flows, and manages variable generation and flexible loads. Microgrid solutions allow for such smart control automation of the distributed behind-the-meter (BTM) renewable resources and loads. This white paper examines real world examples to emphasize the role played by microgrids in enabling electricity market deregulation.
