Develop a controls architecture to broad range of DERs across the grid system services through transactive, aggregation, and direct control methods. Follows laminar coordination principles. …

We develop control and optimization approaches to manage DER to provide power systems services at minimal cost. Our work employs spatio-temporal hierarchical controls, consistent …

Mar 20, 2025 · NREL and partners have piloted a hierarchical control system that estimates and forecasts DER flexibility in real time, aggregates DER resources across neighborhoods, and …

The report provides a multi-layer hierarchical control architecture that enables groups of aggregated DERs to provide services in the bulk power system and/or the distribution system: …

There have long been two views of how DER needs to be controlled: Centralized, with all the command and control belonging in the central data center, and distributed, with the control …

Mar 11, 2021 · This article reviews the vital aspects of DER based microgrid and presents simulations to investigate the impacts of DER sources, electric vehicles (EV), and energy …

Abstract—This paper presents a two-layer distributed energy resource (DER) coordination architecture that allows for sepa-rate ownership of data, operates with data subjected to a …

Jul 14, 2023 · This chapter presents the design of efficient controllers and protection systems for distributed energy resources (DERs)-based microgrids. The control strategies for DERs …

The EASE architecture, otherwise referred to as the Distributed Control Architecture (DCA), is a system-of-systems design to address the increasing volume of DER interconnections to the …

This paper presents a laminar control architecture for dis-tributed power system controls that increases operational exibility by coordinating centralized and distributed con-trol systems.
