Microgrid pre-synchronization technology
Aiming to resolve the problems of frequency overstep and voltage fluctuation in traditional pre-synchronous grid-connection schemes, a micro-grid pre-synchronous grid-connection scheme is proposed that can solve both frequency overstep and voltage fluctuation at the same time. . This paper develops an integrated synchronization control technique for a grid-forming inverter operating within a microgrid that can improve the microgrid's transients during microgrid transition operation. Excessive frequency deviation may lead to abnormal equipment operation and compromise system stability. To address this issue, the following approaches are proposed: First, methods. . In this paper, we are focused on a particular control strategy called virtual oscillator control and propose a method that guarantees graceful pre-synchronization addition of units into an existing ac system.
