Real-time emergency control in power systems

摘要

The present invention is concerned with a method for real-time emergency control of power transmission networks, based on a modification of the model predictive control (MPC) approach. Following the detection of a contingency at time tc, only one nominal trajectory xnom is approximated, together with its corresponding trajectory sensitivities for evaluating the effect of various key parameters or potential control actions. An optimum input control is finally identified via the solution of a cost function including e.g. a punishment for excessive load shedding. The process is started only if the nominal trajectory does not remain within acceptable trajectory limits. IMAGE
