A microgrid is a local electrical grid with defined electrical boundaries, acting as a single and controllable entity. It is able to operate in grid-connected and off grid. A stand-alone or isolated microgrid only operates off-the-grid and cannot be connected to a wider electric power system. Very small microgrids are called nanogrids.
Over 2.5GW of grid-scale battery storage is in development in Ireland, with six projects currently operational in the country, four of which were added in 2021. The operational use of the already-installed capacity of grid
