This paper introduces a robust approach, integrating a Virtual Inertia Controller (VIC) with a modified demand response controller for an islanded Multi-Microgrid (MMG) system, accommodating high levels of Renewable Energy Sources (RESs). In these MGs, the low inertia in the system has an undesirabl...
