This paper presents the design and implementation of a grid-forming control for a dual-purpose dc-dc/ac PWM modular power converter tailored for three-phase three-wire ac conversion in nanogrid applications. The study emphasizes the integration of grid-forming and droop control mechanisms to ensure system stability and controlled power sharing. Extensive simulations and analyses demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy, yielding swift and precise responses to dynamic power demand changes. The research offers valuable insights into the operation and functionality of this power converter topology within ac nanogrids, contributing to enhanced grid flexibility and reliability in renewable energy systems.
