Title: The Concept and Research of Converter-based Grid
Abstract: Electric power system with renewable energy in the leading role is evolving with essential change of grid morphology. Electric power is integrated to the grid through converters which increase the proportion of power electronics in power system. Converter-based grid (CBG) will be reached when converter-based power generation replaces synchronous machine to build the grid frequency and voltage. This paper aims to discuss the concept, constitution and operation of CBG, and the future development prospect of CBG is also put forward.
