Autonomous Microgrid Restoration Using Grid-Forming Inverters and Smart Circuit Breakers
The proliferation of distributed inverter-based resources (IBRs) raises the questions if these IBRs can be used to blackstart microgrids and distribution feeders after major outages. In this paper, we propose and evaluate an autonomous microgrid restoration concept using grid-for...

High-Fidelity Model of Stand-Alone Diesel Electric Generator With Hybrid Turbine-Governor Configuration for Microgrid Studies
Develops a high-fidelity dynamic model of a stand-alone diesel electric generator to support microgrid control design as inverter-based resources provide fast frequency response alongside diesel primary response. The model includes a synchronous machine, DC4B excitation with a V/H...

Dispatching Grid-Forming Inverters in Grid-Connected and Islanded Mode
This paper explores the dispatchability of grid-forming (GFM) inverters in grid-connected and islanded mode. GFM inverters usually use droop control to automatically share power with other GFM sources (inverters and synchronous generators) and follow the change in the load demand;...
