Parallel current-controlled synchronverters for voltage and frequency regulation in weak grids

The emulation of synchronous machines is becoming an attractive solution to provide virtual inertia and voltage support to weak grids and microgrids, representing an alternative to conventional current-injection control strategies.However, synchronverters operate as voltage sources and this makes it difficult to limit the current when an event like voltage sag takes place.Here, a method to LED Driver limit the output current of synchronverters in parallel connection is proposed.

First of all, a fictitious reference current is generated, and its value is then followed by an internal current controller.A method to avoid the loss of synchronism when the current saturates is proposed and studied in detail.Also, the implementation of the controller Cable Ties is addressed carefully.

All the control system improvements are tested on a prototype consisting of two 15 kVA synchronverters connected in parallel to a configurable weak grid.
