    Abstract

    Power grid stability and security are challenging problems with significant economic and social impacts that have been exacerbated in recent years by the increase in extreme weather events and cyberattack concerns. Recently, networked microgrids (NMs) have become an emerging paradigm that demonstrates resiliency benefits to their local customers. However, lack of awareness of stability margin, the inadequate capability to respond to grid disturbances, and vulnerabilities to communication failure, delay, and cyberattacks all contribute to undermining the capability of NMs to improve distribution grid resiliency.

    To tackle these issues, Dr. Li's group contributes a set of novel methods, including Formal Analysis (FA), Distributed Formal Analysis (DFA), and Software-Defined Active Synchronous Detection (SDASD). The new technologies collectively lead to a set of powerful tools for planning, operating, and protecting future NMs.
