Collaborative Research: Hierarchical Integration and Control of Distributed Energy ResourcesThe objective of the research is to investigate a hierarchical framework for integration of a strongly heterogeneous set of distributed energy resources into utility grids or microgrids. The approach is to define the detailed functions of each level in the hierarchical architecture, to develop control strategies for each level that effectively decouple the nonlinear controls of dc, ac and synchronous links, and to evaluate and validate through extensive simulation studies the performance of an example microgrid that uses those strategies and architectures. Intellectual Merit: The research tackles a widely-recognized but as yet unresolved problem that increasingly challenges the power community. This project will find its success in definition of a framework that includes physical and control interface requirements, and in bounding the performance of those standards and interfaces through simulation studies. This will enable high penetration of distributed resources in the existing infrastructure.Broader Impacts: Safe and reliable integration of distributed energy resources will benefit all segments of society, from individuals who install photovoltaic roofing, to companies that install peak-shaving equipment, from owners of the power distribution infrastructure, to all of the consumers who will benefit from the resulting more-robust electric grid. This research will also provide abundant material for new courses, research topics, and hands-on learning opportunities for students, including the large population of minority students at the two institutions. The research will be used in existing and new outreach programs to cultivate students' enthusiasm in engineering and to attract them to engage in this area.

协作研究：分布式能源资源的分层集成和控制本研究的目标是研究一种用于将一组高度异质的分布式能源集成到公用电网或微电网中的分层框架。该方法是定义分层结构中每一级的详细功能，为每一级制定控制策略，以有效地解耦直流、交流和同步链路的非线性控制，并通过广泛的仿真研究来评估和验证使用这些策略和结构的实例微电网的性能。智力上的优点：这项研究解决了一个广为人知但尚未解决的问题，这个问题日益挑战着权势群体。该项目将成功地定义包括物理和控制接口要求的框架，并通过模拟研究来约束这些标准和接口的性能。这将使分布式资源在现有基础设施中得到高度渗透。广泛的影响：安全可靠地整合分布式能源将使社会各阶层受益，从安装光伏屋顶的个人到安装调峰设备的公司，从配电基础设施的所有者，到将从由此产生的更强大的电网中受益的所有消费者。这项研究还将为新课程、研究课题和实践学习机会的学生提供丰富的材料，包括这两所院校的大量少数民族学生。这项研究将用于现有的和新的外展项目，以培养学生对工程的热情，并吸引他们从事这一领域。
