• Single product complianceo Does it meet IEEE 2030.7 core level functions?o Does it meet additional customer requirements?
• Product comparisono How do these controllers compare?
Requires testing in the context of a microgrid system
• Site-specific complianceo Is it capable of managing this microgrid’s assets in
order to meet these interconnection requirements?
Objectives of microgrid controller evaluation
