In a deregulated power system, Demand Side Management (DSM) plays a vital role in
handling the uncertain renewable power generation and load. The flat load-profile can be …

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 …

In this paper, we present new distributed controllers for secondary frequency and voltage
control in islanded microgrids. Inspired by techniques from cooperative control, the …

In this paper, restorations for both voltage and frequency in the droop-controlled inverter-
based islanded microgrid (MG) are addressed. A distributed finite-time control approach is …

With the rapid development of power electronics technology, microgrid (MG) concept has
been widely accepted in the field of electrical engineering. Due to the advantages of direct …

The introduction of microgrids in distribution networks based on power electronics facilitates
the use of renewable energy resources, distributed generation (DG) and storage systems …

Microgrids are electricity distribution systems containing renewable or non-renewable-
based distributed energy resources (DERs), storage devices, and loads, which operate …

This paper presents a distributed hierarchical control framework to ensure reliable operation
of dc microgrid (MG) clusters. In this hierarchy, primary control is used to regulate the …

One of the well-known methods to share active and reactive power in microgrids (MGs) is
droop control. A disadvantage of this method is that in steady state the frequency of the MG …

Grid-tied power electronic converters are key enabling technologies for interfacing
renewable energy sources, energy storage, electrical vehicles, microgrids, and high-voltage …
