Course Overview
This hands-on course focuses on modeling, simulating, and analyzing grid-forming inverters using PSCAD. Participants will work through a real-world case study, gaining practical experience in designing and testing inverter-based control strategies for modern power systems.
Key Learning Outcomes
- Understand grid-forming inverters and their role in power system stability.
- Develop and simulate grid-forming control strategies in PSCAD.
- Analyze system response under faults, islanding, and black start conditions.
- Explore weak grid integration and system resilience improvements.
Course Structure
- Introduction to grid-forming inverters and their applications.
- PSCAD Model Development for an example case study.
- Control Implementation: Droop control, virtual inertia, and adaptive response.
- Performance Analysis: Stability, fault response, and black start capability.

GridForming Inverters - Course CodeThis is not a quiz! Note: After entering the code correctly and completing all steps (See 100% on your course progress bar), your certificate will be issued automatically for you to download. Alternatively, you can find your Certificate of Completion on your user account's homepage. Look for the three vertical dots next to "Enrolled Courses," click on it, and select "My Certificates." From there, you can download your certificate. -
