Control Strategy for Uninterrupted Microgrid Mode Transfer during Unintentional Islanding Scenarios

This is the author accepted manuscript. The final version is available from EIEE via the DOI in this record.This paper presents a microgrid control strategy to unify the control topology for energy storage systems (ESS) and renewable energy sources (RES) inverters in an AC microgrid and to protect the microgrid reliability from unintentional islanding instability using control loops which use the DC link voltage as a feedback. This bounds the DC link voltage and provides reliable operation in the microgrid. Simulation validates the proposed control strategy, and experiment results extol the concept
