Universal Passive Synchronization Method for Grid-Forming Inverters Without Mode Transition
Power systems are transforming with increasing levels of inverter-based resources (IBRs). This transformation requires critical roles of grid-forming (GFM) inverters replacing synchronous generators for bulk power system stabilization and ancillary services, also allowing flexible...

Quantitative Trade-Off in Distributed Secondary Control for Autonomous AC Microgrids
In this paper, we propose to quantify the trade-off between voltage regulation and reactive power sharing in autonomous AC microgrids with distributed secondary control. It is known that voltage regulation and reactive power sharing in droop-controlled autonomous AC microgrids are...

Droop Control-Based Dispatch of an Islanded Microgrid with Multiple Grid-Forming Sources
Before rotating, fossil fuel-based, synchronous generators (SGs) are phased out, in line with renewable generation goals, grid-forming (GFM) inverters are expected to parallel SGs. Primary droop control allows GFM inverters to share power without communication; however, it is nece...
