    Microgrids enable distribution of electricity with higher shares of variable renewables, higher power quality, greater reliability and higher efficiency. There are a large number of factors in addition to the technology, which affect their shift towards market competitiveness and widespread adoption. The PESTEL framework, covering Political, Economic, Social, Technical, Environmental and Legislative factors, is used to identify and describe the drivers and barriers for microgrid development at the global level. The framework enables a broader approach to describe potential for microgrid applications. The results aim to provide engineers, project developers and microgrid specialists with an overview of the prospects for microgrid deployment.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository ‘You share, we take care!’ – Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Energy Technolog

    Abstract: Composite materials are those materials which are made by combining two or more materials with unique properties. Polymer matrix composites are one of the most important composites which are used in various industries due to their light weight, high stiffness and high strength. Because of its advantages it is important to know the manufacturing techniques of PMCs. PMCs are used by automotive, pharmaceutical, sports and aerospace industries. This paper gives detailed review of different traditional and 3d printing methods of manufacturing Polymer Matrix Composites. These methods are more effective in making special shapes west bullet proofs, boat bodies and heavy cylinders. In recent research on effecting manufacturing of composite materials, it is found that the 3d printing technology makes some difference in making PMC with much better properties. In this review we also discuss about one of the 3d printing methods, that is Fusion Deposition Modeling for making PMCs with improved strength and properties. Keywords: Stiffness, Strength, Polymer Matrix Composite, Manufacturing, FDM, 3d printing.
