Historically, centrally computed algorithms have been the primary means of power system
optimization and control. With increasing penetrations of distributed energy resources …

Communication infrastructure (CI) in microgrids (MGs) allows for the application of different
control architectures for the secondary control (SC) layer. The use of new SC architectures …

The electric power system is currently undergoing a period of unprecedented changes.
Environmental and sustainability concerns lead to replacement of a significant share of …

Distributed control is an effective method to coordinate multiple components in a microgrid. It
usually has mandatory requirements for communication graph topology; changing the …

A second-order generalized integrator (SOGI) is a resonant regulator with a pair of complex-
conjugate poles, and therefore, with infinite magnitude at its center frequency. Thanks to this …

The microgrid concept represents a promising approach to facilitate the large-scale
integration of renewable energy sources. Motivated by this, the problem of global …

In this paper, we present a risk-averse model predictive control (MPC) scheme for the
operation of islanded microgrids with very high share of renewable energy sources. The …

In inverter-based microgrids, individual inverters operate usually with their own digital
processor. The clocks used to generate the time signals of these processors differ from each …

This paper presents a distributed hierarchical control architecture for voltage and frequency
stabilization and reactive power sharing in AC islanded microgrids. In the primary control …

In the recently deregulated electricity market, distributed generation based on renewable
sources is becoming more and more relevant. In this area, two main distributed scenarios …
