In grid-connected mode, MG inverters typically operate under a current source control strategy, whereas in islanding mode MG inverters operate under a voltage source control approach. Strategy I reaches steady state faster with overshoots and has a tracking error in the reactive power. The low PCC. . Although droop control and VSG control each have distinct benefits, neither can fully meet the diverse, dynamic needs of both grid-connected (GC) and islanded (IS) modes. Additionally, the coupling between active and reactive power can negatively impact microgrids' dynamic performance and. . Strategy I: All battery inverters work in GFM mode with power sharing by droop control (50% GFM inverters). Based on the study, select the more appropriate control strategy for the microgrid.
