Community microgrids implemented in existing electricity grids can meet both development targets set out in the Paris agreement: 1. mitigate greenhouse gas emissions through increased implementation of renewable energy sources, and 2. to adapt to climate related disturbances and risk of catastrophes. Community microgrids are, however, complex to implement and institutional change is needed to reach their full potential. The purpose of this article is to review existing literature and analyze institutional developments influencing the growth of community microgrids. The literature describes a concentration of microgrid activities in specific regions: USA, EU, Asia and Australia. Varying reasons for implementing community microgrids were found in the different regions but similar institutional developments occurred, albeit with differing emphasis due to contextual specificities. Formal directions do however influence informal institutions even though their aims differ. Power utilities stand out as a critical actor and both formal and informal institutions put pressure on utilities to update their traditional business models. This article illustrates how informal and formal institutions play a significant role in the growth of community microgrids in existing electricity grids and provide interesting examples which can be utilized by policymakers. Microgrid development is still in a formative phase and further institutional change in the form of updated regulations is needed.

揭示社区微电网的复杂性:回顾机构在微电网发展中的作用

在现有电网中实施的社区微电网可以实现《巴黎协定》中设定的两个发展目标:1.通过增加可再生能源的使用来减少温室气体排放;以及2.适应与气候相关的干扰和灾难风险。但是,社区微电网实施起来很复杂,需要机构变革才能充分发挥其潜力。本文的目的是回顾现有文献并分析影响社区微电网发展的制度发展。文献描述了微电网活动在以下特定地区的集中情况:美国,欧盟,亚洲和澳大利亚。在不同地区发现了实施社区微电网的各种原因,但是发生了类似的机构发展,尽管由于上下文的特殊性而具有不同的重点。正式的指导确实会影响非正式机构,即使它们的目标有所不同。电力公用事业脱颖而出,成为关键角色,正式和非正式机构都向公用事业施加压力,要求其更新其传统业务模式。本文说明了非正式和正式机构如何在现有电网中社区微电网的增长中发挥重要作用,并提供了可供决策者使用的有趣示例。微电网的发展仍处于起步阶段,需要以更新的法规形式进一步进行体制变革。电力公用事业脱颖而出,成为关键角色,正式和非正式机构都向公用事业施加压力,要求其更新其传统业务模式。本文说明了非正式和正式机构如何在现有电网中社区微电网的增长中发挥重要作用,并提供了可供决策者使用的有趣示例。微电网的发展仍处于起步阶段,需要以更新的法规形式进一步进行体制变革。电力公用事业脱颖而出,成为关键角色,正式和非正式机构都向公用事业施加压力,要求其更新其传统业务模式。本文说明了非正式和正式机构如何在现有电网中社区微电网的增长中发挥重要作用,并提供了可供决策者使用的有趣示例。微电网的发展仍处于起步阶段,需要以更新的法规形式进一步进行体制变革。
