This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Power distribution systems could potentially see high penetration of mixed distributed energy resources. This creates a need for new ways to analyze the electrical systems to assure a more resilient, reliable and strong power system. Nowadays, the typical power grid is designed to generate electricity in a dispatchable, centralized mode. The grid typically does not contain much, if any, energy storage capability. In addition to this, the distribution systems have been characterized as having predictable passive loads, without any generation, and largely fed by radial feeders, which means that the power flow is unidirectional from the distribution substations to the customers. The last decade has seen a significant increase in application of renewable generation resources interconnected to both transmission and distribution systems, and this trend is accelerating. The mixed DERs are stochastics sources and are largely not-dispatchable, resulting in potential for power flow from the distribution levels to transmission grid. The incorporation of microgrids has been proposed, with some initial applications. In addition, loads have evolved into more active forms. All these changes make the control of the power grid more complex and add more functions and requirements to reach an optimal operation between all of the entities that make up the power grid of the future. Maintaining or improving the resilience of a power grid will depend on the control of the assets connected into the grid. These assets can be classified as controllable and noncontrollable. This thesis will focus on adding dynamic reactive power sources at pinch points in the distribution system to improve resilience. The scheme will be tested in a distribution model that is presented as an approximation of a possible electrical grid of the future. A method for sizing the reactive compensators will be presented and tested through simulation looking at different levels of solar penetration. The optimal location and sizing of the DSTATCOMs aligned to the reactive power requirements will be analyzed for different scenarios. At the end, these results will provide data for the evaluation of resilient metrics of these systems. On a different note, the application of PV systems has grown in the last years because of the carbon dioxide reduction needs and the growth of the electrical energy demand. Locations where the power grid is not accessible are the ideal to use this new source of energy, such cases are known as stand-alone system installations since they are not connected to the power grid. However, since the dependency on the daylight solar energy resource; many applications include batteries to provide electricity when the sunlight is not available. Therefore, an assessment of two types of solar cells will be included in this thesis to decide which of them will be more efficient to use for small stand-alone applications.

This book was released on 2017-10-25 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Americans' safety, productivity, comfort, and convenience depend on the reliable supply of electric power. The electric power system is a complex "cyber-physical" system composed of a network of millions of components spread out across the continent. These components are owned, operated, and regulated by thousands of different entities. Power system operators work hard to assure safe and reliable service, but large outages occasionally happen. Given the nature of the system, there is simply no way that outages can be completely avoided, no matter how much time and money is devoted to such an effort. The system's reliability and resilience can be improved but never made perfect. Thus, system owners, operators, and regulators must prioritize their investments based on potential benefits. Enhancing the Resilience of the Nation's Electricity System focuses on identifying, developing, and implementing strategies to increase the power system's resilience in the face of events that can cause large-area, long-duration outages: blackouts that extend over multiple service areas and last several days or longer. Resilience is not just about lessening the likelihood that these outages will occur. It is also about limiting the scope and impact of outages when they do occur, restoring power rapidly afterwards, and learning from these experiences to better deal with events in the future.

Download or read book Novel Volt Var Control Strategies for Active Distribution Systems written by Mehmet Yilmaz and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Power distribution networks are rapidly evolving as active distribution systems, as a result of growing concerns for the environment and the shift towards renewable energy sources (RESs). The introduction of distributed generations can benefit the distribution network in terms of voltage support, loss reduction, equipment capacity release, and greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction. However, the integration of RESs into electric grids comes with significant challenges. The produced energy from renewable sources such as wind and solar is intermittent, non-dispatchable and uncertain. The uncertainty in the forecasted renewable energy will consequently impact the operation and control of the power distribution system. The impact on Volt/Var control (VVC) in active distribution systems is of particular concern, mainly because of reverse power flow caused predominantly by RESs. RESs can influence the operation of voltage control devices such as on-load tap changers (OLTCs), line voltage regulators (VRs) and shunt capacitor banks (ShCs). It is mainly because of reverse power flow, caused predominantly by RESs. Reverse power flow or injecting power between the regulator and the regulation point can confuse the local regulator controller, which leads to inappropriate or excessive operations. Some of the potential adverse effects include control interactions, operational conflicts, voltage drop and rise cases at different buses in a network. This research project aims to carry out an in-depth study on coordinated Volt/Var control strategies in active distribution networks. The thesis focuses on the problem of Volt/Var optimization in active distribution networks, operated under different operating conditions, by taking into consideration the current distribution system requirements and challenges in the presence of high RESs penetration. In the initial phase of the research project, a generic solution to the VVC problem of active distribution systems was first developed. The primary goal of this generic solution involved the determination of an optimal control strategy based on system status, which was identified from bus voltages. As such, there are three different operating states; normal, intermediate and emergency state. Each operating state has its own control strategy that includes state-related objective functions, such as minimization of power losses, operational control costs, and voltage deviation. For both normal and intermediate state operations, a heuristic-search based optimization algorithm is implemented. In order to be able to take control actions rapidly, a novel rule-based control strategy is developed for the emergency state. In the second phase of the research project, the proposed zone-oriented convex distributed VVC algorithm was developed to address the limitations of heuristic optimization algorithms, including long solution times and the non-global optimal solution. The proposed algorithm is based on chordal-relaxation semi-definite programming (SDP), and divides distribution systems into areas based on customer types, wherein, each zone has its own priorities, characteristics, and requirements. The primary goal is to achieve optimal voltage control for each zone, according to its operational requirements and characteristics. Furthermore, in contrast to many decentralized approaches that require iterative solutions to update global multiplier and a penalty parameter to convergence, this method proposes a novel multi-period hierarchical convex distributed control algorithm, requiring no iterative process and no penalty parameter. Eliminating the iterative solution makes convergence fast, while having no penalty parameter allows for the algorithm to be less human and system dependent. In the final phase of the research project, a 2-stage control algorithm aiming to minimize VR tap movements in convex VVC formulation was developed. In the first stage, the VVC problem is solved for hourly intervals, and VR tap positions are obtained. In the second stage, control horizon is divided into 15 minutes intervals, and the voltage is controlled only by the RESs' active and reactive power adjustment. The tap movement minimization and 2-stage control algorithm eliminates the excessive use of VRs, prolongs the operational life of VRs and reduces the system operational cost. The optimal operation of Volt/Var control devices was investigated in the presented Volt/Var optimization methodology. The proposed research will pave the way for managing the increasing penetration of RESs with different types, technologies and operational modes, from a distribution system voltage control perspective. The proposed methodologies in this thesis have been tested on sample distribution systems and their effectiveness is validated.

This book was released on 2012-11-25 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The electric power delivery system that carries electricity from large central generators to customers could be severely damaged by a small number of well-informed attackers. The system is inherently vulnerable because transmission lines may span hundreds of miles, and many key facilities are unguarded. This vulnerability is exacerbated by the fact that the power grid, most of which was originally designed to meet the needs of individual vertically integrated utilities, is being used to move power between regions to support the needs of competitive markets for power generation. Primarily because of ambiguities introduced as a result of recent restricting the of the industry and cost pressures from consumers and regulators, investment to strengthen and upgrade the grid has lagged, with the result that many parts of the bulk high-voltage system are heavily stressed. Electric systems are not designed to withstand or quickly recover from damage inflicted simultaneously on multiple components. Such an attack could be carried out by knowledgeable attackers with little risk of detection or interdiction. Further well-planned and coordinated attacks by terrorists could leave the electric power system in a large region of the country at least partially disabled for a very long time. Although there are many examples of terrorist and military attacks on power systems elsewhere in the world, at the time of this study international terrorists have shown limited interest in attacking the U.S. power grid. However, that should not be a basis for complacency. Because all parts of the economy, as well as human health and welfare, depend on electricity, the results could be devastating. Terrorism and the Electric Power Delivery System focuses on measures that could make the power delivery system less vulnerable to attacks, restore power faster after an attack, and make critical services less vulnerable while the delivery of conventional electric power has been disrupted.

This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Driven by their economic and environmental advantages, smart grids promote the deployment of active components, including renewable energy sources (RESs), energy storage systems (ESSs), and electric vehicles (EVs), for sustainability and environmental benefits. As a result of smart grid technologies and the amount of data collected by smart meters, better operation and control schemes can be developed to allow for cleaner energy with high efficiency, and without breaching network operating constraints. Power distribution networks may face some operational and control challenges as the integration of intermittent energy sources (wind and PV power systems) increases. Some of these challenges include voltage rise and fluctuation, reverse power flow, and the malfunction of conventional Volt/Var control devices. Depending on their location, RESs may introduce two issues related to the Volt/Var control problem, the first of which is that the severity of loading variations will be greater than the case without RESs. The second occurs when the RES is connected between the load center and any regulating devices. The power in-feed from the intermittent RESs may not only mislead the regulator's control circuit, resulting in unfavorable voltage, but may also enforce the regulator taps to operate randomly following bus voltage variations. This thesis investigates and presents a methodology for the Volt/Var control problem in Smart Distribution Grids (SDGs) under the high penetration and fluctuation of RESs. The research involves the application of predictive control actions to optimally set Volt/Var control devices before the predicted voltage violation takes place. The main objective of this controller is to manage and control the operation of Volt/Var devices in an optimal way that improves the voltage profile along the feeders, reduces real power losses and minimizes the number of Volt/Var device taps and/or switching movements under all loading conditions and for high penetration RESs. This thesis first presents a very Short-Term Stacking Ensemble (STSE) forecasting model for solar PV and wind power outputs that is developed to predict the generated power for intervals of 15 minutes. The proposed model combines heterogeneous machine learning algorithms composed of three well-established models: Support Vector Regression (SVR); Radial Basis Function Neural Network (RBFNN); and Random Forest (RF) heuristically via SVR. The STSE model aims to minimize the prediction error associated with renewable resources when used in the real-time operation of power distribution networks. Secondly, a day-ahead Predictive Volt/Var Control (PVVC) model is developed to find the optimal coordination between Volt/Var control devices under the high penetration and power variations of RESs. The objective of the PVVC model is defined as simultaneous minimization of voltage deviation at each bus, power losses, operating cycle of regulation equipment, and RES curtailment. The benefit of using smart inverter interface RESs with the capability of injective/absorbing reactive power is examined and applied as ancillary services for voltage support. Thirdly, a Sequential Predictive Control (SPC) Strategy for smart grids is developed. The model uses the past and currently available data to forecast demand and RES outputs for intervals of 15 minutes, with real-time updating mechanisms. It then schedules the settings and operations of Volt/Var control devices by solving the Volt/Var control problem in a rolling horizon optimization framework. Because the optimization must be solved in a short interval with a global solution, a solution methodology for linearizing the nonlinear optimization problem is adapted. The original control problem, which is a Mixed-Integer Nonlinear Programming (MINLP) optimization problem, is transformed into a Mixed Integer Second Order Conic Programming (MISOCP) problem that guarantees a global solution through convexity and remarkably reduces the computational burden. Case studies carried out to compare the proposed model against state-of-the-art models provides evidence for the proposed model's effectiveness. Results indicate that the SPC is capable of accurately solving the control problem within small time slots. The proposed models aim to efficiently operate SDGs at a high penetration level of RES for a day-ahead, as well as in real-time, depending on the preference of network operators. The primary purpose is to minimize operating costs while increasing the efficiency and lifespan of Volt/Var control devices.

This book was released on 2016-09-30 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electricity, supplied reliably and affordably, is foundational to the U.S. economy and is utterly indispensable to modern society. However, emissions resulting from many forms of electricity generation create environmental risks that could have significant negative economic, security, and human health consequences. Large-scale installation of cleaner power generation has been generally hampered because greener technologies are more expensive than the technologies that currently produce most of our power. Rather than trade affordability and reliability for low emissions, is there a way to balance all three? The Power of Change: Innovation for Development and Deployment of Increasingly Clean Energy Technologies considers how to speed up innovations that would dramatically improve the performance and lower the cost of currently available technologies while also developing new advanced cleaner energy technologies. According to this report, there is an opportunity for the United States to continue to lead in the pursuit of increasingly clean, more efficient electricity through innovation in advanced technologies. The Power of Change: Innovation for Development and Deployment of Increasingly Clean Energy Technologies makes the case that America's advantagesâ€"world-class universities and national laboratories, a vibrant private sector, and innovative states, cities, and regions that are free to experiment with a variety of public policy approachesâ€"position the United States to create and lead a new clean energy revolution. This study focuses on five paths to accelerate the market adoption of increasing clean energy and efficiency technologies: (1) expanding the portfolio of cleaner energy technology options; (2) leveraging the advantages of energy efficiency; (3) facilitating the development of increasing clean technologies, including renewables, nuclear, and cleaner fossil; (4) improving the existing technologies, systems, and infrastructure; and (5) leveling the playing field for cleaner energy technologies. The Power of Change: Innovation for Development and Deployment of Increasingly Clean Energy Technologies is a call for leadership to transform the United States energy sector in order to both mitigate the risks of greenhouse gas and other pollutants and to spur future economic growth. This study's focus on science, technology, and economic policy makes it a valuable resource to guide support that produces innovation to meet energy challenges now and for the future.

Download or read book Dynamic Distribution System Restoration Strategy for Resilience Enhancement Preprint written by and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In electric power distribution systems, distributed energy re-sources (DERs) can act as controllable power sources and support utility operators to minimize power outages after ex-treme weather events (e.g., hurricane, earthquake, wildfire) and thus help enhance the grid's resilience. Meanwhile, the influ-ences of extreme events and the capabilities of DERs are dy-namic and difficult to predict. Hence, the desired distribution system restoration strategy should be able to evolve according to real-time fault/disturbance information and the availabil-ity of DERs. In this paper, we propose a new dynamic distribu-tion system restoration strategy to enhance system resilience against potential hazards. An efficient reconfiguration algo-rithm is developed to eliminate the use of integer variables to relieve the computational burden. Model predictive control is implemented to adjust the system topology and DER opera-tion setpoints based on the updated fault information and DER forecasts. The effectiveness of the proposed restoration model in enhancing distribution system resilience is validated through an IEEE 123-bus test system. Simulation results also validate that the proposed restoration model can mitigate the occurrence of unexpected events and the fluctuations of DERs.

Download or read book Network Level Optimization for Volt Var Control in Unbalanced Electric Power Distribution Systems written by Rahul Ranjan Jha and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The distribution optimal power flow (D-OPF) models have gained attention in recent years to optimally operate a centrally managed distribution grid. The key requirement of the D-OPF is to obtain a feasible solution for the real-time operation in the distribution system. Towards this goal, following are the major contributions in this dissertation. First, for a distribution system, all the controllable devices are required to be known in advance for optimal operation. Next, to develop an algorithm, each component in the system are modelled with the same sets of variables. In this dissertation, we developed a mathematical model for capacitor banks, voltage regulators, loads and generators wrt to branch flow model based power flow equations. Next, D-OPF algorithm is developed for volt-var optimization (VVO) with conservation voltage reduction (CVR) for a distribution system. Second, we investigate that the D-OPF algorithm obtained by solving nonlinear programming is not scalable. Hence, we are required to develop an algorithm which can solve D-OPF problem faster, which can be implemented for the real-world problem. In this regard, we have developed iterative algorithm based an approximation and relaxation of the nonlinear power flow equations. It has been investigated that the proposed iterative algorithm is scalable and are able to obtain a feasible solution.Third, mostly the D-OPF algorithm is solved at the centralized location and solved in discrete time interval (5 or 15 min). Due to large scale deployment of distributed energy resources (DERs) specially roof-top PVs, there is fluctuation in power production within 5 or 15 min time interval. This hinders the optimal operation of the system and deteriorates the life-cycle of the legacy devices installed in the system. Here, we developed local control methods which works in coordination of the centralized control. The combined control method is able to reduce the power consumption from a feeder as well as to maintain power quality. Fourth, we integrated a volt-var optimization (VVO) application on an ADMS environment using the GridAPPS-D platform. The successful deployment of the VVO application on the GridAPPS-D platform provides a proof-of-concept for the adoption of advanced applications to support future distribution systems.

Download or read book Group Decision Making written by Thomas L. Saaty and published by RWS Publications. This book was released on 2013-11-15 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When a group makes a decision, that decision carries a lot more weight than when just one person does it. Think of the founding fathers of the American constitution and how much power and influence their ideas have had in the entire world for more than two hundred years. Also think of gravity, a universal force brought about by an enormous number of minute particles that band together to make a universal law. Together, they create a massive force, a law of nature; alone they can barely be noticed. That is how our minds work by deciding together to create a power that transcends our individuality. Group decision making is a gift and an opportunity to create greater influence through the working together of many minds. This book shows how to use the Analytic Hierarchy Process for hierarchical decision making and the Analytic Network Process for decision making in networks with dependence and feedback in group decision making. Part I discusses the group and the decision and shows the importance of using a structured process, particularly for those high value decisions involving many powerful parties with different interests. It discusses how to facilitate a group decision, combine individual judgments and smooth differences to arrive at a decision that everyone can live with and get behind. Part II discusses the group in planning and how to draw out differences. Part III is about conflict resolution and Part IV is about how to address significant issues that come up in group decision making and shows that it is possible to construct an overall group preference.
