Abstract

In recent years, in response to the global climate crisis, inverter-based energy resources (IBRs) have been massively integrated into power systems. Their effective operation and control lie on a wide variety of inner, outer, and synchronization control loops which have been reported to interact and compromise power system’s stability. In this study, a Multi-Input-Multi-Output (MIMO) impedance model for a three-phase grid following inverter with local voltage control has been proposed. This linear time invariant model takes into consideration the delay and the coupling between the control blocks and serves as a simpler and more computationally efficient method to capture oscillations and interactions in time and frequency domain. It can predict instabilities caused by the different control layers along with the frequencies of the oscillations. The effect of the delay, the current control tuning parameters and the interactions between the current controller and the local voltage controller have been highlighted. The results have been validated in time and frequency domain simulations in SIMULINK environment.
