    Summary [1]

    Inverter as interface between generator and

    utility are the core component of DER Grid interaction and safety of inverters are

    crucial at high penetration of DER.

    Outlook

    Increasing penetration of DER also gives

    more possibilites to provide grid

    Modern power electronic devices enable

    active power injection

    Fault Ride-Through Dynamic grid support

    Active voltage and reactive power control

    Use of PV inverter as active filters

    Only a stable grid enables an unlimited

    expansion of renewable energies
