Abstract
A method for operating a microgrid using a distributed energy resource (DER) controller determines an output power value of a DER. The method also receives a remote power correction value from a second DER controller. The method further determines a local output power reference value as a function of the output power value and the remote power correction value. The method further determines a frequency set point as a function of the local output power reference value and a droop coefficient. The method further adjusts an output frequency of the DER as a function of the frequency set point.
