This chapter introduces concepts of DC MicroGrids exposing their elements, features, modeling, control, and applications. Renewable energy sources, en-ergy storage systems, and loads are the basics components of a DC MicroGrid. "The path of the smart grid. " Telecommunications Energy Conference (INTELEC), IEEE, 2011. Why DC microgrids?. However, a new concept is emerging, as the electrical distribution networks characterized by DC transmission are beginning to be considered as a promising solution due to technological advances. The demand for electrical power in large industrial manufacturing plants, such as steel production facilities, is on the rise [1]. This approach moves power generation closer to where it is consumed for a more resilient, localized option to promote energy independence. .
