Abstract
In this paper a design of a master-slave microgrid consisting of grid-supporting current source inverters and a synchronous generator is proposed. The inverters are following the frequency of the grid imposed by the synchronous generator. Hence, the proposed structure of the microgrid is steadily synchronized. We show that the method achieves power sharing without the need of communication. Furthermore, no change in operation mode is needed during transitions of the microgrid between islanded and grid-connected modes.
