Entergy, EPRI Validate Measurement-Based Voltage Stability Monitoring Method to Improve Grid Reliability

摘要

The Electric Power Research Institute and Entergy Corp. have validated a method developed by EPRI for continuously calculating the voltage stability margin on transmission networks using measured voltage and current waveforms at the transmission substation level. The method promises to overcome limitations of traditional methods that rely primarily on simulation-based methods and promises to help power system operators prevent voltage collapse.
