Real-time simulation: A key enabler for the practical control design of grid-forming controlled power electronic converters

The proposed training provides a comprehensive approach to designing and implementing controller for grid-connected power electronic converters with a special focus on Grid-Forming control application. 

Participants will explore the methodology for control design, progressing from offline simulation to real implementation, highlighting also Real-Time Simulation (RTS) and Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) techniques. The course covers automatic code generation for microcontrollers, ensuring seamless deployment of control algorithms. Additionally, key controller tuning principles will be reviewed to enhance practical understanding.  

Representatives from OPAL-RT, L2EP and  Mathworks will provide an advanced initiation to their products.

Benefits

Benefits of attending our training

A specific focus will be placed on grid-forming converters, increasingly used in applications such as renewable energy integration and energy storage systems. Practical aspects, including converter control, startup sequences and protection mechanisms, will be addressed through lab experiments on a small-scale converter (see the figure below). 

This training is ideal for engineers and researchers looking to bridge the gap between simulation and hardware implementation in modern power electronics.
