Abstract

Solid-state transformer (SST) has been regarded as one of the most important emerging technologies for traction system and smart grid application. This paper presents the system design and performance demonstration of a high-voltage SST lab prototype that works as the active grid interface in smart grid architecture. Specifically, the designs of the key components of the system, including both power stage and controller platform, are presented. In addition, the advanced control system is developed to achieve high-performance operation. Furthermore, integration issues of SST with dc microgrid are presented. Lastly, tests under different scenarios are conducted to verify the following advanced features of the presented SST technology: 1) VAR compensation; 2) voltage regulation; 3) source voltage sag operation; and 4) microgrid integration.
