Control of Microgrids

This course addresses the main types of controllers for grid forming inverters. Real-time simulations with Typhoon HIL will be presented to demonstrate and compare their performances using a test driven design. This makes it possible to cover different operating conditions in a automated fashion, including steady-state and transient responses, in both grid connected and island mode.

Grid forming well explained

It's a well structured and concise course. Very useful to learn the mainstream subjects of the Grid forming converters.

Concepts were explained in a clear manner.

I observe that there was a missing constant in the droop control for voltage differential equation. Please refer 5.1-Inductive-Droop.pdf page 13. The voltage differential equation second term 'a' is missing. Can you please check and update me if I am wrong. That same equation followed for the rest of the model implementation. Please let me know the effect of results in case my observation is true

Course has an easy but strong material with important knowledge for the next generation of Power Electronics

The course has good handouts, the videos on-demand help to pause, take notes and search more about the important subjects presented in the course.

Good contribution about GFM inverter technology but lack of instruction the example models and instruction

I would like to play with simulation models for these control technology of inverters. In addition, there is no instruction to make a report and comparison with the downloadable files. Even, I think only one test case is included in the attached file but it does not work to generate the report.
