Popis: Microgrid Energy Management is done to optimize microgrid performance. Power from Wind Turbines (WT) and Photo Voltaic (PV) modules into a microgrid addresses both factors of environmental concerns as well as sustainable energy production. Point of coupling with utility main grid is disconnected when microgrid functions in autonomous mode and it enhances steady microgrid operation when traditional grids face blackouts. Clean and renewable energy sources being easily affected by variation in weather condition, so taking into account of this uncertainty is essential while formulating power flow problem which can be done through demand response programs. This paper aims to investigate results obtained from research of several researchers scrutinizingly and analyzed critically for optimal energy management in microgrids using demand response programs. This paper also highlights the worthy findings of possible areas of research that would enhance the use of demand side management through demand response programs in microgrids.
