Review on Oscillatory Stability in Power Grids With Renewable Energy Sources: Monitoring, Analysis, and Control Using Synchrophasor Technology

摘要

Oscillatory stability has received immense attention in recent years due to the significant increase in power electronic converter (PEC)-interfaced renewable energy sources. Synchrophasor technology offers superior capability to measure and monitor power systems in real time, and power system operators require better understanding of how it can be used to effectively analyze and control oscillations. This article reviews state-of-the-art oscillatory stability monitoring, analysis, and control techniques reported in the published literature based on synchrophasor technology. An updated classification is presented for power system oscillations with a special emphasis on oscillations induced from PEC-interfaced renewable energy generation. Oscillatory stability analysis techniques based on synchrophasor technology are well established in power system engineering, but further research is required to effectively utilize synchrophasor-based oscillatory stability monitoring, analysis, and control techniques to characterize and mitigate PEC-induced oscillations. In particular, emerging big data analytics techniques could be used on synchrophasor data streams to develop oscillatory stability monitoring, analysis, and damping techniques.
