Microgrid Impedance

Virtual Impedance Shaping for low voltage Microgrids

Abstract—AC Microgrids, in presence of highly non-linear loads, require a tighter regulation of line voltage to maintain power quality. This article proposes an outer virtual impedance loop to shape the

How buildings can solve energy security as demands surge

Surging energy demands and prices of buildings are turning leaders to efficiency retrofits to reduce energy costs and improve long-term energy security.
