In order to solve the aforementioned problems, based on Xu et al. (2017), this article proposes a VSG-based frequency deviation-free control strategy, which can effectively reduce the fluctuations caused by the rapid change of reactive power during the grid-connected/island. . Therefore, this article proposes a VSG-based frequency deviation-free control strategy. The proposed MFC strategy combines Riccati matrix and model-free theory to minimize frequency. . Islanded microgrids (IMGs) offer a viable and efficient energy self-sustaining solution for distributed resources in remote areas. Moreover, IMGs encounter uncertain and nonlinear. .

A microgrid is a group of interconnected loads and distributed energy resources within clearly defined electrical boundaries that acts as a single controllable entity with respect to the grid. It can connect and disconnect from the grid to operate in grid-connected or island mode. Microgrids can operate in several different modes depending on the power demand, the availability of energy sources, and the connection. . The key distinguishing feature of a microgrid is its ability to: 3. Key Components of a Microgrid 3.

Therefore, this study presents a composite controller incorporating a global integral terminal sliding mode controller with a backstepping controller. . Fluctuations in distributed power supply and sudden changes in DC load power will lead to serious DC bus voltage fluctuations in DC microgrids, which will have a certain impact on the safe and stable operation of DC microgrids. The system inertia is enhanced by exploring the auxiliary power of DESS and thus t e stability of the voltage is improved. In addition, the microgrids suffer from an inherent low-inertia problem.
