• The synthesis of the modern VSG models into generic structures is performed. • The comprehensive assessment of the generic VSG structures is carried out. • The most reliable VSG structure for grid-connected operation is highlighted. The large-scale penetration of renewable energy sources has a significant impact on the steady-state operation and emergency control of modern electric power systems (EPS). Moreover, as a rule, the mentioned impact is negative. Therefore, the challenge associated with the development of a 'comprehensive' control strategy for renewables becomes extremely relevant. Such a strategy should ensure the same reliable operation of EPSs, as in the case of conventional synchronous generation. Among the existing directions, the concept of a virtual synchronous generator (VSG) is the most preferable. Within this paper, the synthesis and combination of the state-of-the-art concepts of VSG into generic structures has been performed. For the obtained structures, a comprehensive assessment and an experimental comparison were performed. On the basis of the results obtained, the benefits and drawbacks of the generic structures are highlighted, and a conclusion is made about the VSG structure, demonstrating the most effective and reliable operation.
