Distributed Hierarchical Control for Fast Frequency Restoration in VSG-Controlled Islanded Microgrids

Authors: Kuo Feng, Chunhua Liu
Abstract:
As microgrids develop rapidly, more inverters are adopted to achieve DC/AC or AC/DC/AC conversion of distributed generators (DGs). Replacing the large rotary generators with inverter-based sources results in a lack of inertia in the grid. The virtual synchronous generator (VSG) control …

A Data-Driven Short-Term PV Generation and Load Forecasting Approach for Microgrid Applications

Authors: Rohit Trivedi; Sandipan Patra; Shafi Khadem
Extended Abstract:
The data-driven (DD) is a systematic approach to improve the data and model by deriving/adding features to address the problem identified during the iterative loop of forecasting model development. This article proposes a DD framework for forecasting short-term …

Low-Voltage dc System Building Blocks: Integrated Power Flow Control and Short Circuit Protection

Authors: Pavel Purgat, Aditya Shekhar, Zian Qin, Pavol Bauer
Extended Abstract:
Sustainable power distribution for transportation, industry, and city infrastructure is a global-scale issue. Direct current (DC) power distribution increases system efficiency and reliability in systems with integrated storage, renewable energy, or variable-speed generators. This article gives …

Towards Grid of Microgrids: Seamless Transition between Grid-Connected and Islanded Modes of Operation

Authors: Silvanus D’silva, Mohammad Shadmand, Sertac Bayhan, Haitham Abu-Rub
Extended Abstract:
With the ever-increasing number of blackouts in distribution systems arising from a variety of natural and manmade disasters, the frequent and necessary isolation/reconnection of loads without power deviations/fluctuations has become an important issue. Grid of microgrids (MGs) is …
