Architecture of a Residential Solid State Power Substation (SSPS) Node

Conference ·

High integration rates of new loads and distributed generation at the edge of the grid are posing new challenges. However, existing smart power electronic systems are not designed to coordinate and maximize grid support or provide multiple grid services simultaneously. This work presents the application of a solid-state power substation (SSPS) to residential systems to increase this coordination and reduce future challenges. The proposed residential SSPS is validated in simulation including power electronic converter models, feeder models, and optimization.
