Renewable Energy Integrated Power System Stability Assessment with Validated System Model Based on PMU Measurements

Wang, Chen 14 June 2019 (has links)
Renewable energy is playing an increasingly significant role in power system operation and stability assessment with its numerous penetration expansion. This is not only brought by its uncertain power output and inverter-based equipment structures but also its operation characteristics like Low Voltage Ride Through (LVRT). It is thus necessary to take these characteristics into consideration and further to find more adaptive schemes to implement them for more effective analysis and safer power system operation. All the aforementioned is based on the accurate identification of the system fundamental information. In this dissertation, a systematic approach is proposed to find the valid system model by estimating the transmission line parameters in the system with PMU measurements. The system transient stability assessment is conducted based on this validated model. The constrained stability region is estimated with Lyapunov functions family based method in the center of angles reference frame considering renewables LVRT as operation limits. In order to integrate the LVRT constraints, a polytopic inner approximation mechanism is introduced to linearize and organize the transformed constraints in state space, which brings much scalability to the whole process. From the voltage stability perspective, an approach to adaptively adjust LVRT settings of the renewable energy sources in the system is formulated to guarantee the system load margin and thus the voltage security. A voltage prediction method is introduced for critical renewable energy sources identification. Estimation methods based on interpolation and sensitivities are developed and conducted for saving computation effort brought by continuation power flows. Multiple test cases are studied utilizing the proposed approaches and results are demonstrated. / Doctor of Philosophy / Renewable energy utilization is continuously rising nowadays. They are clean but highly dependent on natural resources, which causes their uncertainty and intermittence in electric power output. The power system, on the other hand, is designed for schedulable and controllable power generators, which make the traditional methods for system operation and analysis of the system stability much less effective facing the trend of renewables integration. In this dissertation, a series of systematic approaches are proposed firstly identify the system parameters for more accurate system modeling through PMU measurements, then to assess the system transient stability considering the renewable energy sources operation limits, and finally to adaptively adjust these operation limit for improving the system voltage security. The operation limits are transferred into the form in terms of system states. Linearization and approximation methods are also introduced to enhance the scalability of the processes. Multiple test cases are studied with the proposed approaches and the results demonstrate their effectiveness and efficiency.
