An auto-tuned droop coefficient-based controller for microgrid system to enhance grid resilience during blackouts

•Presents new challenges in microgrid control aspects and design of resilient grid.•Proposed a resilient MGs with strong dynamic stability for power restoration.•The proposed ATDC-based controller is designed to solve the blackout issues.•Power management using proposed controller is resilient against unknown blackouts.•ATDC-based controller’s effectiveness is tested under different operating situations.
