Summary form only given. The paper presents that smart microgrid could offer a perfect power system with higher reliabilities which could guide customers to lower their costs and utilize electricity more efficiently. The task of improving the efficiency and upgrading the resiliency of the electric grid, in order to support clean and renewable energy, is one we cannot let be exported or delegated overseas. The different role of smart microgrid in a power system are discussed in this article.
