    A modern challenge in power engineering is to perform the dynamic security assessment (DSA) of grids that are 100% powered by inverter-based resources (IBRs). Addressing this challenge is difficult because: (i) the dispatch of IBRs can be uncertain as a result of the variability of renewable resources and (ii) they have hard current control limits that cannot be neglected, contrasting synchronous machines. To address this problem, this paper sets forth a framework to conduct DSA of bulk power systems that are 100% powered by grid-forming IBRs. The framework considers that IBR operational conditions are unknown but bounded by a zonotope which is also expressed as a polynomial vector for uncertainty propagation via Dormand–Prince integration. The framework is applied to modified versions of the WSCC 9-bus and IEEE 39-bus grids.

    Ascertaining the transient stability of grid-forming (GFM) exclusive systems under uncertain operating conditions is an emerging problem. This difficulty is addressed here by engineering: (i) an analytic model of GFM power plants for current saturation and (ii) an explicit Runge-Kutta scheme to propagate initial condition uncertainties represented as multivariate polynomial vectors. The propagation scheme builds upon an innovative truncated polynomial multiplication algorithm to prevent polynomial-degree explosion due to such successive operations. Transient stability is ascertained from the calculated polynomials using contraction theory. These contributions are showcased via the modified WSCC 9- and IEEE 39-bus systems.

    Photovoltaic (PV) power plants with grid-forming technology must withstand severe disturbances and remain operational. To address this challenge, this paper sets forth a grid-forming strategy for PV solar power plants so that they can ride through power system faults. This capability is accomplished by leveraging two-axis proportional-integral regulators with anti-windup functionality. This paper also demonstrates that fluctuations of solar irradiance can cause significant dc-link voltage variations and loss of synchronism of grid-forming PV plants. Hence, we develop an active dc-link protection method which depends on estimation in solar irradiance. The contributions of this paper are demonstrated via positive-sequence simulations of modified versions of the WSCC 9- and IEEE 39-bus grids.
