The main goal of this paper is to present the development and simulation of a new dynamic voltage stability control technique, with a focus on effective control and coordination of all available reactive power generation resources in a microgrid setting. Both power electronics and synchronous generator based distributed energy resources (DERs), and grid-supporting functions, are considered to accommodate a high penetration of diverse DERs and energy storage by using an enhanced microgrid voltage stabilizer. A systematic controller parameter synthesizing method is employed, and the overall dynamic voltage stability of the system is studied and evaluated with a time-domain dynamic simulation during emergency, hazard and disaster events. The results with the new approach show significant improvements and enhancements on the dynamic voltage profile of the distribution system, leading towards a more resilient grid system with high penetration of diverse DERs during emergency, hazard and disaster events.
