UNIFI Specifications for Grid-Forming Inverter-Based Resources (V. 2)
- National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), Golden, CO (United States)
The UNiversal Interoperability for grid-Forming Inverters (UNIFI) Consortium is addressing fundamental challenges facing the integration of grid-forming (GFM) inverters in electric grids alongside rotating machines and other inverter-based resources (IBRs). This document defines a set of UNIFI Specifications for GFM IBRs that provides requirements from both a power system-level as well as functional requirements at the inverter level that are intended to provide means for vendor-agnostic operation of GFM IBRs at any scale in electric power systems. The specifications are clearly identified and attributed to an IBR plant or an IBR unit throughout the document, where applicable.
