MISO Grid-Forming Model Quality Tests

Additional model quality and grid-forming conformity tests for grid-forming inverter-based resources.

About this module

What this module covers.

For grid-forming (GFM) inverter-based resources, MISO requires additional Model Quality Tests and Appendix H GFM conformity tests as part of the resource interconnection process. This module covers conducting the GFM modeling, MQT, and conformity assessments required to demonstrate GFM performance in accordance with MISO's requirements.
