Operational Planning of Grid Flexibility Resources for Voltage and Frequency Control in Modern Power System
PhD confirmation of candidature presentation of Maqsood Shah.
Abstract: In modern power systems, the shift from synchronous generators to inverter-based resources (IBRs) reduces inertia and short-circuit level of the system, making frequency and voltage more sensitive to disturbances. The variable nature of IBRs can cause significant generation-demand imbalances, resulting in frequency and voltage deviations which may lead to grid code limits violations. In addition, the uncertain behaviour of IBRs along with the probabilistic nature of system conditions and events will increase the overall uncertainty in the system. Therefore, operational planning of grid flexibility resources for voltage and frequency control should be performed by considering the uncertainties in the system.
This research project models the main sources of uncertainties in modern power system to assess the risk (voltage and frequency violations) across scenarios and then determines the reserve requirement for a specific dispatch interval. Following this, techno-economically optimal actions will be identified considering all grid flexibility resources (IBRs, flexible loads and ESSs) to manage the risk within that dispatch interval. The Tasmanian power system (2030 scenario) will be used as a case study for the evaluation of proposed work.
