  1. 1. Parallel Operation of Grid-Forming Power Inverters

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Alessia Camboni; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The use of renewable energy sources has been increasing during the last few years, both to obtain a less impacting energy production, and because of the limited fossil resources. Renewable sources are connected to the grid using inverters, which can be controlled in two main modes, grid-following, and grid-forming. READ MORE

  2. 2. Frequency Stability of Power Electronic Based Power System with 100% Renewable Energy.

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Abdullah Albalali; [2022]
    Keywords : energy storage; frequency control; synchronous generators; distributed power generation; virtual synchronous machine VSM ; PSCAD.; energilagringssystem; frekvenskontroll; synkrona generatorer; distribuerad kraftproduktion; virtuell synkron maskin; PSCAD.;

    Abstract : The modern power system is aiming to progress away from conventional synchronous machine  based power generation towards converter dominated system that leads to extensively high penetration of renewable energy such as wind and PV. This transition of modern power system toward converter based renewable energy comes with new challenges as the conventional synchronous generation is being replaced by converter based power system (CBPS).

  3. 3. Assessing the Impact of High Grid Penetration of Renewable Energy on Power System Stability

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : William Nordberg; Alexander Leijonhielm; [2022]
    Keywords : Power System Stability; Variable Renewable Energy; Power System Stabilizers; Grid Following Converters; Grid Forming Converters;

    Abstract : In this report, the effect that a higher penetration ofrenewable energy sources has on electric power grid stability isevaluated. The report also compares different methods of stabilizingan unstable grid. READ MORE

  4. 4. Small Signal Stability of Power Systems With Increased Converter Based Power Production

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Gustav Kjellson; Josefin Gustafsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Small signal stability; Power system stabilizer; Renewable energy; Grid following converters; Grid forming converters;

    Abstract : The aim of this project is to analyze how increasing the share of converter-based power production in a power system affects the small signal stability. The project also aims to stabilize systems using Power System Stabilizers (PSSs), and examine the effect of two different types of power electronic converters: grid following (GFL) and grid forming (GFM).

  5. 5. A Comparison of Grid-Forming and Grid-Following Control of VSCs

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för elektroteknik

    Author : Pontus Roos; [2020]
    Keywords : Voltage source converter; Synthetic inertia; Fast frequency response; Power system; STATCOM; Energy storage; Power electronics; Syntetisk svängmassa; Frekvensreglering; Elkraftsystem; energilager; kraftelektronik;

    Abstract : Variable renewable energy sources are today increasingly integrated in the power system as a step towards the renewable society. The large-scale introduction of converter-based energy sources brings challenges in terms of reduced damping to the power system due to the reduced number of synchronous generators. READ MORE
