Analysis of an On-Line Stability Monitoring Approach for DC Microgrid Power Converters
An online approach to evaluate and monitor the stability margins of dc microgrid power converters is presented in this paper. The discussed online stability monitoring technique is based on the Middlebrook's loop-gain measurement technique, adapted to the digitally controlled power converters. In this approach, a perturbation is injected into a specific digital control loop of the converter and after measuring the loop gain, its crossover frequency and phase margin are continuously evaluated and monitored. The complete analytical derivation of the model, as well as detailed design aspects, are reported. In addition, the presence of multiple power converters connected to the same dc bus, all having the stability monitoring unit, is also investigated. An experimental microgrid prototype is implemented and considered to validate the theoretical analysis and simulation results, and to evaluate the effectiveness of the digital implementation of the technique for different control loops. The obtained results confirm the expected performance of the stability monitoring tool in steady-state and transient operating conditions. The proposed method can be extended to generic control loops in power converters operating in dc microgrids
Requirements to Testing of Power System Services Provided by DER Units
The present report forms the Project Deliverable ‘D 2.2’ of the DERlab NoE project, supported by the EC under Contract No. SES6-CT-518299 NoE DERlab. The present document discuss the power system services that may be provided from DER units and the related methods to test the services actually provided, both at component level and at system level

An Assessment of PIER Electric Grid Research 2003-2014 White Paper
This white paper describes the circumstances in California around the turn of the 21st century that led the California Energy Commission (CEC) to direct additional Public Interest Energy Research funds to address critical electric grid issues, especially those arising from integrating high penetrations of variable renewable generation with the electric grid. It contains an assessment of the beneficial science and technology advances of the resultant portfolio of electric grid research projects administered under the direction of the CEC by a competitively selected contractor, the University of California’s California Institute for Energy and the Environment, from 2003-2014
Doktrin pengasingan kuasa : falsafah, praktis dan kerelatifan di Malaysia
Penulisan ini membincangkan tentang doktrin pengasingan kuasa berdasarkan kerangka teori institusionalisme. Doktrin ini dipraktiskan dalam trias politica atau politik tiga serangkai iaitu badan legislatif, eksekutif dan kehakiman. Falsafah dan praktis doktrin pengasingan kuasa ini adalah ditekankan bagi sesebuah negara bercorak demokrasi untuk mempamerkan wujudnya pengasingan kuasa serta autonomi bidangan di antara ketigatiga badan kerajaan. Hal ini penting untuk disoroti kerana Malaysia tidak terkecuali daripada mengamalkan sistem demokrasi dan pada masa yang sama mempraktiskan doktrin pengasingan kuasa dalam kerajaan federalisme berlapisnya sebagai satu pegangan fundamental. Akauntabiliti untuk menzahirkan doktrin pengasingan kuasa ini merupakan perkara yang penting memandangkan ia telah dimaktubkan dalam Perlembagaan Persekutuan
