This paper develops a technical framework for the next‐generation power grid transformer (NGPGT) for grid renewables. This framework is structured to overcome the environmental …
Solid-state transformer (SST) and hybrid transformer (HT) are promising alternatives to the line-frequency transformer (LFT) in smart grids. The SST features medium-frequency …
Power grids are evolving with the aim to guarantee sustainability and higher levels of power quality for universal access to electricity. More specifically, over the last two decades, power …

Lack of effective control over the power flow is one of the main problems in the Point of Common Coupling (PCC) of the microgrid and the main utility. To tackle this issue, this …
A smart transformer (ST) based meshed hybrid distribution network is realized by extending ST low voltage dc (LVDC) link to form a LVDC line which connects dc buses of existing …
The smart transformer (ST) offers several features in a hybrid microgrid due to the presence of both ac and dc links while providing various power flow paths. For ST based meshed …
In this paper, a control structure is used that allows the connection of distributed generation sources as well as energy storage to the DC link of smart transformer (ST). This feature …
