Transient stability analysis for planning and operation of fault-initiated islanding inverter-based microgrids

How do you ensure that the electricity network of the future, with its greater contribution from wind and solar energy, does not constantly fail and remains as stable as possible? Martijn Roos investigated how microgrids can be applied to increase the reliability of electricity supply during short circuits. Read more
