Abstract

This paper uses a passivity-based control method for grid-forming control-based distributed energy resources (DERs). A port-controlled Hamiltonian form is used to guarantee the passivity property. In addition, different passivity-based control methods are applied to different DERs in a microgrid, where an energy storage system, wind turbine, and solar-based DERs are considered. Since all the operating DERs can guarantee the passivity property, the stable operation of the microgrid is guaranteed. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed control method effectively manages the microgrid, ensuring stable operation.
