Such schemes fall into two broad categories: so-called “grid-following” controllers that seek to match output ac power with grid frequency, and “grid-forming” systems that seek to boost grid stability. Our researchers evaluate in-house-developed controls and partner-developed microgrid components using software modeling and hardware-in-the-loop evaluation platforms. A microgrid is a group of interconnected loads and. . A distributed optimal control strategy based on finite time consistency is proposed in this paper, to improve the optimal regulation ability of AC/DC hybrid microgrid groups. In the. . Abstract—The increasing integration of renewable energy sources (RESs) is transforming traditional power grid networks, which require new approaches for managing decentralized en-ergy production and consumption.
