@book{2026:mirzadeh:gridformi, title = {Grid-forming Inverters for Restoration of Residential Grids without Communication}, year = {2026}, note = {This dissertation investigates the use of grid-forming inverter-based resources for the self-re-energization of low-voltage networks without relying on central control units or extensive communication infrastructure, which can introduce single-point vulnerabilities. The work approaches network restoration from an inverter perspective and develops inverter control and dynamic load models to analyze decentralized restoration strategies. Based on these models, a systematic framework for designing and validating re-energization scenarios is established. Rather than identifying a single optimal configuration, the approach aims to ensure robust and feasible restoration across a wide range of operating scenarios.}, edition = {1}, publisher = {TEWISS}, address = {Garbsen}, series = {Berichte aus dem IAL}, volume = {01/2026}, author = {Mirzadeh, Mina} }
