With the gradual transformation of power generation towards renewables, distributed energy resources are becoming more and more relevant for grid stabilization. In order to involve all participants in the joint solution of this challenging…
Voltage control devices are employed in power distribution systems to reduce the power consumption by operating the system closer to the lower acceptable voltage limits; this technique is called conservation voltage reduction (CVR). The…
Grid-forming inverters control the power transfer between the AC and DC sides of an electrical grid while maintaining the frequency and voltage of the AC side. This paper focuses on ensuring large-signal stability of an electrical grid with…
To enable power supply in rural areas and to exploit clean energy, fully renewable power systems consisting of cascaded run-of-the-river hydropower and volatile energies such as pv and wind are built around the world. In islanded operation…
Traditionally, Volt/VAR optimization (VVO) is performed in distribution networks through legacy devices such as on-load tap changers (OLTCs), voltage regulators (VRs), and capacitor banks. With the amendment in IEEE 1547 standard,…
High penetrations of photovoltaic (PV) systems can cause severe voltage quality problems in distribution networks. This paper proposes a distributed control strategy based on the dynamic formation of coalitions to coordinate a large number…
In this paper, an actuator active fault-tolerant controller (FTC) is proposed for the voltage source converter (VSC) which interfaces a distributed energy resource (DER) to the power grid. The proposed active FTC includes two units:…
As more distributed energy resources (DERs) are connected to the power grid, it becomes increasingly important to ensure safe and effective coordination between legacy voltage regulation devices and inverter-based DERs. In this work, we…

The capability to switch between grid-connected and islanded modes has promoted adoption of microgrid technology for powering remote locations. Stabilizing frequency during the islanding event, however, is a challenging control task,…
We estimate the lock-in domain of the origin of a current control system which is used in common DC/AC inverter designs. The system is a cascade connection of a 4-dimensional linear system (current controller, CC) followed by a…
Recent work has proposed a universal framework that integrates the well-established power synchronization control into vector current control. Using this controller for the parallel operation of grid-forming converters, and/or with loads…
