Introduction to Microgrids Including Interver Based Resources

 

Microgrids are moving from niche applications to utilities systems. A brief introduction to microgrids, including basic concepts for control and operation will be provided. Inverter-based resources are seeing increased application in distribution systems, and their controls have an impact on microgrid operation. An overview of common inverter-based resources and voltage source converter topologies will be presented, with discussion of configurations for higher power applications. This will be followed by a discussion on commonly applied control schemes that can be used for grid following and grid forming operation, including how they respond to faults and other disturbances.
