Design of a Non-PLL Grid-Forming Inverter for Smooth Microgrid Transition Operation
This paper develops a controller for a grid-forming (GFM) inverter that is capable of operating as either a GFM or grid-feeding source that can improve the operation of a microgrid during on-off grid transitions through use of a novel synchronization approach. Furthermore, this co...

Design of a State Machine for Smooth Microgrid Transition Operation
A state machine is proposed in the energy management system (EMS) of a microgrid as the solution for smooth microgrid's transition operation. This state machine includes six 'states' that cover all the operating modes during the microgrid's transition operation: two basic modes (g...

Performance Evaluation of Peer-to-Peer Distributed Microgrids Coordination for Voltage Regulation
This paper presents the performance evaluation of a peer-to-peer microgrids coordination algorithm for sub-transmission systems. As distributed energy resources (DERs) in distribution system start to show negative impact to the bulk power system, a paradigm shift is needed for tra...

Use of Grid-Forming Medium-Voltage Power Electronics Hub in a Microgrid Setting
This paper presents the application of a new design of a multiport, modular, medium-voltage power electronics hub (M3PE-HUB) in a microgrid setting. The M3PE-HUB system was modeled in a digital real-time simulator (DRTS) and integrated into the Banshee microgrid test system. This ...

Dynamic Shaping of Grid Response of Multi-Machine Multi-Inverter Systems Through Grid-Forming IBRs: Preprint
We consider the problem of controlling the frequency response of weakly-coupled multi-machine multi-inverter low-inertia power systems via grid-forming inverter-based resources (IBRs). In contrast to existing methods, our approach relies on dividing the larger system into multiple...
