Abstract

Today’s power grids are experiencing a rapidly increasing integration of distributed energy resources (DERs) such as wind and PV, as well as energy storage systems and more-efficient loads. Most DERs, storage systems, and high-efficient loads are interfaced to the grid through power electronics converters. As a result, today’s grid is undergoing a critical change with high penetration of power electronics. Such more-electronics power grids demand the right grid structure and suitable power management and power quality management strategies to ensure high efficiency, reliability and power quality. This talk will focus on the more-electronics power grids to facilitate DER integration. The topics will include hybrid AC/DC microgrids, power converter technologies, and control strategies related to power management and power quality.
