Microgrids are low voltage electric distribution grids with modular distributed energy sources and controllable loads. The DC microgrids avoid DC to AC and AC to DC conversion and minimize transmission and distribution losses. Dynamic energy management systems enhance utilization of renewable energy sources and ensure uninterrupted supply of power to critical loads. Like the traditional transmission and distribution grid, AC and DC microgrids are vulnerable to cyber attacks. Further research is required on the cyber security to leverage the promises and potentials of DC microgrids. This paper discusses security vulnerabilities and some solutions for DC microgrids.
