According to Syndem,
its VSM technology
allows solar inverters to
automatically sense and
quickly react to changes
in electricity production
and demand across
the grid.

much larger supplies of solar power into their networks while also making solar-based systems more
secure from cyberattacks.
Syndem was selected as a part of SETO's fiscal
year 2019 funding program, an effort to invest in
new projects that will lower solar electricity costs,
while working to boost solar manufacturing,
reduce red tape, and make solar-based systems
more resilient to cyberattacks. Other awardees
include General Electric, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Georgia Institute of Technology, San
Diego Gas & Electric, and the Electric Power
Research Institute.
"We are very pleased to see that our thinking
over the last nearly 20 years about future power
systems has been recognized. This award will
accelerate our pace in commercializing the technology and deploying it worldwide," said Prof.
Qing-Chang Zhong, IEEE Fellow and founder and
chief executive officer of Syndem and the Max
McGraw Endowed Chair Professor in Energy and
Power Engineering and Management at the Illinois
Institute of Technology, Chicago.
According to Syndem, its VSM technology allows
solar inverters to automatically sense and quickly
react to changes in electricity production and
demand across the grid. If energy demand is high,
power production increases. If grid voltage
slumps, the converters will adjust to provide
appropriate voltage support. The device guides
power generators and consumers to perform these
tasks autonomously without signals from a central
command center-which makes the whole system
cheaper and less vulnerable to cyberattacks.
"Our ultimate goal is to unify all power supply
sources connected to the grid with all the things
that consume electricity from the grid," stated
Prof. Zhong. "Wind power, solar, electric vehicles,
and storage systems all are different, and it's
difficult for these players to work together. They
have different currents and different voltages,
and they fight with each other. We have found the
key to harmonizing them so that they can work
