Biography: Dr. Gibran David Agundis-Tinajero obtained his Ph.D. in Electrical Systems from the Universidad Autónoma de San Luis Potosí in Mexico in 2018. With over a decade of research experience in the modeling, analysis, and control of microgrids, he has worked extensively on both low- and medium-voltage distribution networks, with a particular emphasis on the deep integration of renewable energy sources. Previously, he served as an assistant professor at Aalborg University, where he collaborated with internationally renowned scholars Professor Juan C. Vasquez and Professor Josep M. Guerrero. He has accumulated extensive experience in European research projects on renewable energy and smart grids and has successfully developed new models and algorithms for the operation, control, and analysis of modern renewable energy power systems. Currently, he is a Senior Member of IEEE and serves as a Research Fellow at the Microgrid and Renewable Energy Research Center, Huanjiang Laboratory, Zhejiang University.

Abstract: The extensive promotion of green energy and decarbonization through various environmental policies and initiatives has driven the decentralization of power systems via the deployment of distributed energy resources (DERs). Microgrids have emerged as a promising solution for integrating DERs into distribution grids. However, they also introduce challenges such as low inertia, system instability, and power quality issues. This presentation examines steady-state modeling techniques for controlled microgrids and their applications in planning and operational studies. It highlights the need to develop innovative approaches beyond conventional power system analyses to ensure the reliable integration of renewable energy sources.
