6 FAQs about [Bulgaria grid forming mode]
What is a grid forming control?
Grid-Forming: The primary objective of grid-forming controls for IBRs is to maintain an internal voltage phasor. When grid-forming controls are applied in bulk power system (BPS) connected IBRs, the voltage phasor is held constant in the sub-transient to transient time frame.
What is the difference between grid-forming and grid forming inverters?
Although the configuration of both types of inverters is different, it is invaluable. Grid-forming provides such flexibility and resilience that is incomparable and keeps the system balanced even in the case of grid disturbances and can automatically restore the required system conditions.
What is a grid forming capability?
Although the definition by law includes functionalities such as steady state voltage control, fast reactive current injec-tion, inertia for local grid stability, short-circuit current, black start capability and island operation capability, the provision of grid-forming capabilities would contribute to all of them [ 3 ].
Should we use grid-forming or grid-following inverters?
It is, in essence, a case-by-case decision: deciding between the use of grid-forming and grid-following inverters depends on the identified need in the application of whether it aims at strengthening grid resilience or optimizing renewable energy integration. The two make a critical case in the mind for BESS investment.
