**4. Conclusion**

The proposed LabVIEW solution regarded a small mixed microgrid with two separate AC and DC rings bidirectionally interconnected by static converters. In this respect, the mathematical modeling of PV panels, wind turbine, and battery storage systems was achieved, followed by their implementation within the mentioned microgrid by using the LabVIEW environment.

Furthermore, an Energy Management System related to the microgrid model was developed. Thus, the chapter intends to develop an intelligent Energy Management System suitable to the microgrid components (wind energy conversion system, photovoltaic systems, and battery storage systems). The LabVIEW application is provided with a graphical interface, which allows to identify and establish the initial conditions (meteorological parameters, component elements) as well as the microgrid's characteristic parameters.

The diagram corresponding to microgrid LabVIEW modeling and simulation is equipped with Boolean buttons representing the connection status (disconnected or connected) of the distributed generation sources, storage elements, and end users and highlighting the islanded or interconnected operation with the low-voltage distribution grid. To that end, various operating scenarios were proposed, for which the results and operability of the Energy Management System were analyzed. It is to be noted that the developed EMS is suitable to any practical configuration of the microgrid, microgrid that can be adapted to the requirements of each beneficiary.
