The DC (direct current) 'nano-grid' – a more reliable solution for Areas and Islands of Light

The regular electrical grid is, as nowadays in AC (and using transformers), that one where you have power plants far from where the electricity is consumed, and by using transmission lines to carry the power over long distances.

But it might be also the case where you can also create smaller-sized grids where the generation and consumption of electricity is closer.

Despite, as usual, these smaller grids are also connected to the larger grid, and thus also can operate independently of the outside grid – not this is the case of interest for out Islands and Areas of Light.

What is used as a term as a 'nano-grid', is a grid that is generally small, in the size of a single building.

These small grids can be primarily DC only, and, the more that independent it is and the more the smaller it gets, the more properly it will be of 24/36/48V DC, - (ELVDC)

and also because of the renewable (or 'free') energy that is generated into that area.
