Electromechanical Dynamics of High Photovoltaic Power Grids

This dissertation study focuses on the impact of high PV penetration on power grid electromechanical dynamics. Several major aspects of power grid electromechanical dynamics are studied under high PV penetration, including frequency response and control, inter-area oscillations, transient rotor angle stability and electromechanical wave propagation.To obtain dynamic models that can reasonably represent future power systems, Chapter One studies the co-optimization of generation and transmission with large-scale wind and solar. The stochastic nature of renewables is considered in the formulation of mixed-integer programming model. Chapter Two presents the development procedures of high PV model and investigates the impact of high PV penetration on frequency responses. Chapter Three studies the impact of PV penetration on inter-area oscillations of the U.S. Eastern Interconnection system. Chapter Four presents the impacts of high PV on other electromechanical dynamic issues, including transient rotor angle stability and electromechanical wave propagation. Chapter Five investigates the frequency response enhancement by conventional resources. Chapter Six explores system frequency response improvement through real power control of wind and PV. For improving situation awareness and frequency control, Chapter Seven studies disturbance location determination based on electromechanical wave propagation. In addition, a new method is developed to generate the electromechanical wave propagation speed map, which is useful to detect system inertia distribution change. Chapter Eight provides a review on power grid data architectures for monitoring and controlling power grids. Challenges and essential elements of data architecture are analyzed to identify various requirements for operating high-renewable power grids and a conceptual data architecture is proposed. Conclusions of this dissertation study are given in Chapter Nine

Grid-Forming Inverter-based Wind Turbine Generators: Comprehensive Review, Comparative Analysis, and Recommendations

High penetration of wind power with conventional grid following controls for inverter-based wind turbine generators (WTGs) weakens the power grid, challenging the power system stability. Grid-forming (GFM) controls are emerging technologies that can address such stability issues. Numerous methodologies of GFM inverters have been developed in the literature; however, their applications for WTGs have not been thoroughly explored. As WTGs need to incorporate multiple control functions to operate reliably in different operational regions, the GFM control should be appropriately developed for the WTGs. This paper presents a review of GFM controls for WTGs, which covers the latest developments in GFM controls and includes multi-loop and single-loop GFM, virtual synchronous machine-based GFM, and virtual inertia control-based GFM. A comparison study for these GFM-based WTGs regarding normal and abnormal operating conditions together with black-start capability is then performed. The control parameters of these GFM types are properly designed and optimized to enable a fair comparison. In addition, the challenges of applying these GFM controls to wind turbines are discussed, which include the impact of DC-link voltage control strategy and the current saturation algorithm on the GFM control performance, black-start capability, and autonomous operation capability. Finally, recommendations and future developments of GFM-based wind turbines to increase the power system reliability are presented

Investigation of the cumulative impact of alkaline electrolysers on electrical power systems

Hydrogen could be the best candidate fuel for our future, especially in the transportation sector. It could be generated using water electrolysers running with power from carbon-free, renewable resources, since this is zero emission at the point of use, and so can help transition from the energy infrastructure available today into an energy world with a growing renewable electricity supply.This work models a highly distributed electrolyser system e.g. an urban hydrogen filling station network, and explores the Demand Side Management (DSM) potential of these electrolysers to improve the performance of the power system operating under the impact of intermittent renewable power generation.A comprehensive literature review has been carried out on the hydrogen economy, electrolysers and the potential role of storage devices in power systems. Three main areas related to alkaline electrolysers working within power systems were identified for further exploration. - Potential role of electrolysers in the existing distribution networks to increase the integrated wind power capacity - Potential role of electrolysers to stabilise the frequency of the power system - Potential role of electrolysers to absorb any surplus, carbon free, generation within the UK electricity networkThe first item of archival value within this work is the identification, presentation and discussion of electrolyser characteristics which are relevant to the introduction of an acceptable control strategy to integrate such electrolyser loads within the power system and thus provide improved performance of the network when exposed to the highly time variable energy supply from renewable sources. Two types of electrolyser made by NEL Hydrogen are detailed: atmospheric and pressurised. Their characteristics are reported in this thesis using the results from experiments designed by the author. In addition, an experiment has also been carried out on a PEM electrolyser available at Strathclyde University to compare its results with the characteristics of the commercial alkaline units. Second, a novel algorithm for sizing, placing and control of electrolysis based hydrogen filling stations operating within radial distribution networks has been proposed and its performance is assessed using a United Kingdom Generic Distribution System (UKGDS) case study. The controller objective is to dispatch alkaline electrolysers appropriately to increase the amount of integrated wind power capacity and reduce the grid losses within the network while satisfying the network constraints and respecting the electrolyser characteristics.In addition, a MATLAB Simulink model has been developed to investigate the impact of alkaline electrolysers as dynamically controlled loads for the stabilisation of system frequency in the case of a sudden loss of generation and also when the power system has high penetrations of wind power. The electrolysers are controlled according to a droop control strategy. A novel approach to determine the aggregate nominal electrolysis demand for frequency stability purposes has also been proposed in this work, and the financial viability of the proposed strategy to control electrolysers has been assessed.Finally, several scenarios have been modelled to investigate the role of electrolysers to absorb surplus power and produce hydrogen for the fuel cell vehicles in the UK in the year 2050. Different wind, solar and nuclear power generation capacities have been considered. On the demand side, different penetration levels of electric vehicles and hydrogen fuel cell cars have been modelled. The results are discussed and analysed.Keywords: Alkaline electrolysers, Renewable power, Active Network Management, Distribution network, Power system stability, Hydrogen economy, Power system losses, Demand side management, Load Frequency Control, Energy storage.Hydrogen could be the best candidate fuel for our future, especially in the transportation sector.

Modelling Type 1 and 2 Wind Turbines based on IEC 61400-27-1: Transient Response under Voltage Dips

[EN] Wind power plants depend greatly on weather conditions, thus being considered intermittent, uncertain and non-dispatchable. Due to the massive integration of this energy resource in the recent decades, it is important that transmission and distribution system operators are able to model their electrical behaviour in terms of steady-state power flow, transient dynamic stability, and short-circuit currents. Consequently, in 2015, the International Electrotechnical Commission published Standard IEC 61400-27-1, which includes generic models for wind power generation in order to estimate the electrical characteristics of wind turbines at the connection point. This paper presents, describes and details the models for wind turbine topologies Types 1 and 2 following IEC 61400-27-1 for electrical simulation purposes, including the values for the parameters for the different subsystems. A hardware-in-the-loop combined with a real-time simulator is also used to analyse the response of such wind turbine topologies under voltage dips. The evolution of active and reactive powers is discussed, together with the wind turbine rotor and generator rotational speeds.This work was partially supported by the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness and the European Union -FEDER Funds, ENE2016-78214-C2-1-R-; and the Spanish Ministry of Education, Culture and Sports -ref.

Power systems with high renewable energy sources: A review of inertia and frequency control strategies over time

Traditionally, inertia in power systems has been determined by considering all the rotating masses directly connected to the grid. During the last decade, the integration of renewable energy sources, mainly photovoltaic installations and wind power plants, has led to a significant dynamic characteristic change in power systems. This change is mainly due to the fact that most renewables have power electronics at the grid interface. The overall impact on stability and reliability analysis of power systems is very significant. The power systems become more dynamic and require a new set of strategies modifying traditional generation control algorithms. Indeed, renewable generation units are decoupled from the grid by electronic converters, decreasing the overall inertia of the grid. ‘Hidden inertia’, ‘synthetic inertia’ or ‘virtual inertia’ are terms currently used to represent artificial inertia created by converter control of the renewable sources. Alternative spinning reserves are then needed in the new power system with high penetration renewables, where the lack of rotating masses directly connected to the grid must be emulated to maintain an acceptable power system reliability. This paper reviews the inertia concept in terms of values and their evolution in the last decades, as well as the damping factor values. A comparison of the rotational grid inertia for traditional and current averaged generation mix scenarios is also carried out. In addition, an extensive discussion on wind and photovoltaic power plants and their contributions to inertia in terms of frequency control strategies is included in the paper.This work was supported by the Spanish Education, Culture and Sports Ministry [FPU16/04282]

Doktrin pengasingan kuasa : falsafah, praktis dan kerelatifan di Malaysia

Penulisan ini membincangkan tentang doktrin pengasingan kuasa berdasarkan kerangka teori institusionalisme. Doktrin ini dipraktiskan dalam trias politica atau politik tiga serangkai iaitu badan legislatif, eksekutif dan kehakiman. Falsafah dan praktis doktrin pengasingan kuasa ini adalah ditekankan bagi sesebuah negara bercorak demokrasi untuk mempamerkan wujudnya pengasingan kuasa serta autonomi bidangan di antara ketigatiga badan kerajaan. Hal ini penting untuk disoroti kerana Malaysia tidak terkecuali daripada mengamalkan sistem demokrasi dan pada masa yang sama mempraktiskan doktrin pengasingan kuasa dalam kerajaan federalisme berlapisnya sebagai satu pegangan fundamental. Akauntabiliti untuk menzahirkan doktrin pengasingan kuasa ini merupakan perkara yang penting memandangkan ia telah dimaktubkan dalam Perlembagaan Persekutuan
