Microgrids operating in an island mode, in some cases, have the ability to transfer electricity excess to an external network leading to a synchronization requirement; thus, the optimization task in terms of the system\u2019s synchronization must be considered. This paper proposes a method for obtaining synchronization between microgrids and power systems of limited capacity based on a passive synchronization algorithm, allowing us to connect a microgrid to an external power system with a minimum impact moment on the shaft of the generating equipment. The algorithm application was demonstrated by considering a real-life object in Tajikistan. The simulation was carried out on RastrWin3. The obtained results show that the microgrid generator is connected to an external power system at an angle of 0.3\u00b0 and a power surge of 29 kW, unlike the classical synchronization algorithm with an angle of 6.8\u00b0 and a power surge of 154 kW (a reduction of the shock moment by more than five times). The proposed synchronization method allows us to reduce the resource consumption of the generating equipment and increase the reliability and efficiency of the functioning units of the examined power system.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/su132413975","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,12,20]],"date-time":"2021-12-20T02:40:32Z","timestamp":1639968032000},"page":"13975","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":17,"title":["A Novel Approach of Synchronization of Microgrid with a Power System of Limited Capacity"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4344-6462","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Anvari","family":"Ghulomzoda","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Automated Electric Power Systems, Novosibirsk State Technical University, 630073 Novosibirsk, Russia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3433-9742","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Murodbek","family":"Safaraliev","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Automated Electrical Systems, Ural Federal University, 620002 Yekaterinburg, Russia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5704-0976","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Pavel","family":"Matrenin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Industrial Power Supply Systems, Novosibirsk State Technical University, 630073 Novosibirsk, Russia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1593-129X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Svetlana","family":"Beryozkina","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Engineering and Technology, American University of the Middle East, Kuwait"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Inga","family":"Zicmane","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Electrical and Environmental Engineering, Riga Technical University, LV-1048 Riga, Latvia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3736-652X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Pavel","family":"Gubin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Automated Electrical Systems, Ural Federal University, 620002 Yekaterinburg, Russia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8650-2284","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kamol","family":"Gulyamov","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Electric Drive and Electric Machines, Tajik Technical University Named after Academic M.
