Abstract: Microgrids are a rapidly evolving and increasingly common form of local power generation used to serve the needs of both rural and urban communities. In this paper, we present a methodology to evaluate the evolution of the sustainability of stand-alone microgrids . . Microgrids are a growing segment of the energy industry, representing a paradigm shift from centralized structures toward more localized, autonomous, dynamic, and bi-directional energy networks especially in cities and communities. The ability to isolate from the larger grid makes microgrids. . Part of the book series: Encyclopedia of the UN Sustainable Development Goals ( (ENUNSDG)) The concept of microgrid is evolving by leaps and bounds and assumes various forms depending on location and local requirements (Wouters 2015, 23). At the same time, the definition of microgrid is not based. . Designing effective policy frameworks for the implementation of microgrids in developing countries is crucial for advancing sustainable energy access.
