The electrification of remote islands has long been a subject of research interest, primarily
because of their historical reliance on fossil fuels, leading to a significant carbon footprint …

The development of wave energy technology has advanced significantly, and its grid
connection and power optimization stages have been an area of research. Various grid …

In microgrids, unbalanced loads (single or multi-phase) can create voltage imbalances. In
grid-connected mode, the utility grid helps balance the microgrid load voltages. However, in …

The virtual synchronous machine (VSM) has been a potential solution to control the grid-
forming converters to integrate renewable energies (RES) into the grid. It is responsible for …

This thesis was written in collaboration with the department of electrical engineering at
Uppsala University. It evaluates and tests the potentials and limitations of using the OPAL …
