Abstract
A grid forming vector current control system can be used for controlling a grid intertie. A first terminal is connected to a first power grid and a second terminal is connected to a second power grid. The terminals each include current control unit, a virtual admittance unit, and a phase locked loop (PLL) unit. The virtual admittance unit and the PLL unit are configured to emulate an inertia of a virtual synchronous machine (VSM) and a virtual current source is connected in parallel to the VSM. A controller is configured to use transient power consumed by the first VSM to generate a power-equivalent current reference to control the second virtual current source and to use transient power consumed by the second VSM to generate a power-equivalent current reference to control the first virtual current source.
