Stabilization of Tie-Line Power Flow by Robust SMES Controller for Interconnected Power System With Wind Farms

摘要

This paper presents the use of superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) with robust controllers for stabilization of tie-line power flow in a longitudinally interconnected power system with wind farms. The high penetration of wind power with abrupt changes causes fluctuations of tie-line power flow and significantly affects the effective use of transmission lines. A simultaneous active and reactive power control scheme of SMES including a characteristic of SMES coil current is employed for realizing a permissible range of SMES operation. Moreover, a multiplicative uncertainty model is considered in the parameter optimization of robust SMES controllers by using a heuristic method. Finally, simulation results are carried out to show the effectiveness and robustness under various situations.
