An Innovative Energy Management System for Microgrids with Multiple Grid-Forming Inverters
As increasingly more grid-forming (GFM) inverter-based resources replace traditional fossil-fueled synchronous generators as the GFM sources in microgrids, the existing microgrid energy management systems (EMS) need to be updated to control and coordinate multiple GFM inverters th...

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...
