Important announcement

Dear visitor,

Please note that this OpenCourseWare platform will be replaced at the end of 2026 by a new platform (under the same url ocw.tudelft.nl).

Courses and their contents that are currently available the platform will partly be migrated. URL’s for this content will change and content might be unavailable for some time. In addition, some courses will not be available anymore.

If you are linking to specific courses on this platform (for instance for your students), please take timely measures to avoid problems with access. Possible actions are:

  • Download the materials to your local platform (laptop, server)
  • For educators only (including TU Delft lecturers): Contact us at ocw@tudelft.nl and inform us what course you are using in what context (institute, program, period of use, number of students). We will research (in collaboration with the authors of the course) and decide if we will migrate the course, and if yes, can supply you with a new url.

Thank you.

4.2.4 Inertia Emulation

Course subject(s) Module 4: Intelligent Local Controllers

In the final video of week 4, we discuss the inertial level of microgrids during both grid connected and islanded modes. In particular during the islanded mode, microgrids suffer a lot from the lack of the inertial response. You will therefore learn about the inertial emulation loop, which is an effective solution to increase the inertia in microgrids.
