      Control of distributed energy resources for reactive power support 

      Robbins, B. A.; Domínguez-Garcia, A. D.; Hadjicostis, Christoforos N. (2011)
      This paper proposes a method to utilize distributed energy resources (DERs) to provide reactive power support for voltage control in electric power systems. Rather than controlling each of these resources directly, a ...

      Resilient networked control of distributed energy resources 

      Domínguez-Garcia, A. D.; Hadjicostis, Christoforos N.; Vaidya, N. H. (2012)
      This paper considers networked systems and develops distributed algorithm that is resilient against potential packet drops in the communication links between system components. We apply this algorithm to the problem of ...

      Small inverter-interfaced distributed energy resources for reactive power support 

      Domínguez-Garcia, A. D.; Hadjicostis, Christoforos N.; Krein, P. T.; Cady, S. T. (2011)
      The use of small inverter-interfaced distributed energy resources for reactive power support is discussed. While the primary function of these resources is to deliver active power, they can also be used to provide reactive ...

      A two-stage distributed architecture for voltage control in power distribution systems 

      Robbins, B. A.; Hadjicostis, Christoforos N.; Domínguez-Garcia, A. D. (2013)
      In this paper, we propose an architecture for voltage regulation in distribution networks that relies on controlling reactive power injections provided by distributed energy resources (DERs). A local controller on each bus ...
