The inverters used in IBRs are generally designed to follow the grid volt-ages and inject current into the existing voltage. Therefore, they are known as grid following inverters (GFLIs). The common technique used to synchronize with the grid volt-age is the use of a phase-locked loop (PLL).
IBRs that operate in the grid supporting mode are known as grid-supporting inverters (GSIs). Almost all the large-scale IBRs work as GSIs, and small-scale IBRs, typically below 5 MW, operate as GFDIs. The fundamental difference in grid interaction of GFMIs come from the way active and reactive power delivery to the grid is controlled.
