The advent of microgrids paved the way for energy decentralization and self-sufficiency
among consumers. Reciprocating engine-driven synchronous generators (also known as …

Power electronics for the utility interface of distributed energy resource (DER) offers many
benefits in the electric grid operation through flexibility of the DER controls. Energy from …

For a microgrid with a mix of distributed energy resources (DERs), major challenges on its
survivability are found in the islanded condition. In particular, a sudden loss of generation or …

Microgrids with increased penetration of renewables experience serious challenges due to
large frequency excursions under power system disturbances. An energy storage system …

This paper analyzes the robust stability of a mixed source microgrid comprised of a
synchronous generator-based distributed energy resource (DER) and an inverter-based …

Inverter-based distributed energy resources (DERs) can supply high-quality ac power in a
microgrid due to their fast dynamic response. To achieve high reliability in an islanded …

Power electronic converter-interfaced distributed energy resources (DERs) are being
increasingly deployed for achieving high energy efficiency, power quality, and flexibility of …

A synchronous generator-based distributed energy resource (DER) is commonly employed
in microgrids due to its low cost and simple controls. However, there are many challenges to …

Recently, prime-mover stalling phenomenon was observed in a synchronous generator-
based distributed energy resource (DER) for large step load changes during experimental …

In this work, we propose a novel control methodology for dynamic virtual power plants
(DVPPs). We consider a group of grid-forming distributed energy resources (DERs) that …
