As power systems transition toward inverter-based resource (IBR)-dominated grids, traditional system strength definitions and metrics are becoming increasingly inadequate to characterize upcoming stability challenges. Emerging definitions characterize system strength in terms of…
Analysis of sub-synchronous oscillations (SSO) in IBR-dominated grids relies on frequency scan-based estimation of black-box IBR models at selected operating points. Since IBRs may operate over a wide range of operating conditions, frequency responses obtained at a limited number…
The growing penetration of inverter-based resources (IBRs) necessitates stability assessment methods that are scalable, decentralized, and model-agnostic. This paper develops a block diagonal dominance (BDD) criterion for decentralized small-signal stability of IBR-dominated powe…
