MICROGRIDS SIMPLIFIED

---

SYNCRIS’ Founders sought to simplify power networks and make them more reliable in places like Tanzania, Uganda, Moldova, and Mali where they worked on humanitarian electrification projects. The fundamental problem of synchronization between disparate system components makes traditional microgrid systems of all sizes time-consuming to design, labor-intensive to install, and prone to multiple points of failure during use.

Inspired by natural phenomena such as the self-synchronization of heart cells, and after decades of research, the SYNCRIS team has developed groundbreaking hardware applying complex-systems science to microgrid controls. This innovative approach has led to the creation of modular, scalable microgrids that create intrinsic stability through the hardware itself. 

Utilizing scalable modular inverters with self-synchronization capabilities within microgrids offers several key advantages:

• Enhanced Redundancy and Expandability: Self-synchronizing inverters enable a "peer-to-peer" relationship, allowing multiple inverters to operate simultaneously. This feature effectively avoids disruptions caused by cold switching, enhancing the microgrid's redundancy and expandability.

• Seamless Grid-Connection Switching: Microgrids equipped with self-synchronizing voltage sources can seamlessly switch between grid-connected and islanded modes without changing control modes. This capability provides fast and seamless transitions, granting the microgrid greater autonomy and operational flexibility.

• Improved Economic Viability: The unique N + 1 redundancy mode of distributed microgrids reduces the need for duplicated energy storage resources, significantly enhancing economic efficiency. Microgrids achieve better self-stability and optimized performance without additional reactive power requirements by sharing power adjustments among parallel self-synchronizing voltage sources.

By leveraging scalable modular inverters with self-synchronization capabilities, SYNCRIS can ensure microgrids' reliable, efficient, and cost-effective operation.
