On-line oscillations monitoring under high penetration of non-synchronous generation

摘要

The large scale penetration of non-synchronous generation based power electronics converters interfaces in current power systems is modifying their dynamic characteristics. The observation, monitoring and supervision of the electromechanical oscillation changes due to this integration is a requirement in order to protect the system from undesired events. This paper uses the Prony analysis to estimate the critical modes by using the tie-lines which interconnect the operative areas as measurement points and evaluating the impact of the large gradual scale inclusion of non-synchronous generation on power systems. The modes monitoring involved in the transient dynamic response are shown in the different penetration level cases. From the computed measurements, the frequency and damping variation in the different cases studied on the test system is obtained, which shows the impact of the large inclusion of non-synchronous generation.
