Overview of Functional Technical Requirements for Intentional Islands

This document provides an overview of intentional islands, otherwise known as microgrids. The topics covered include common types of microgrid configurations, high level summaries of standards that address some aspect of microgrid implementation and interconnection, and a discussion of specific standards that apply during specific the islanding operational stages of parallel operation, transition to islanding, islanding operation and transition back to parallel operation.

Mojave firmware 1.09 FW valuation- Firmware 1.09 Results

This quick note outlines what we found after our conversion with you and your team. As suggested, we loaded 1547-2003 source requirements document (SRD) and then went back and loaded 1547-2018 SRD. This did result in implementing the new 1547-2018 settings. This short report focuses on the frequency-watt function and shows a couple of screen shots of the parameter settings via the Mojave HMI interface and plots of the results of the inverter with FW function enabled in both default and most aggressive settings response to frequency events. The first screen shot shows the 1547-2018 selected after selecting 1547-2003.

Mojave firmware 1.09 base-line valuation [Memo]

The inverter firmware was upgraded to version 1.09 and an initial assessment was conducted on the inverter using the equipment listed above and the response of the inverter can be seen in the following plots. This work is to base-line the response of the inverter to utility conditions and commands and further work will involve the interoperability aspect of the inverter using SunSpec dashboard to conduct the tests and configure the inverter.

GMLC Survey of Distributed Energy Resource Interconnection and Interoperability Standards

This document reports on the Grid Modernization Laboratory Consortium effort to identify gaps in standards for the interconnection and interoperability of distributed energy resources (DERs). The project extended a 3-year period from 2017 to 2019. Under the work plan, the team identified standards and test procedures related to interconnection and interoperability, grouped under the broad headings of their primary applicable technology domain: automotive, responsive loads, photovoltaic inverters, inverter-based energy storage, machine-based DERs, and microgrids. The team then conducted a gap analysis by comparing the current standards to the expected future requirements needed for specific grid services. Overall, gaps could be any activity needed to harmonize requirements among standards development organizations, minimize conflicting requirements among technology domains, or streamline conformance test procedures.
