The power industry in China has grown significantly over the past decade, spurring the adoption of system-wide automatic voltage control (AVC) technology to meet stricter requirements for security and economical power system operation. To cope with the rapidly developing and frequently changing Chinese power grid, an AVC scheme based on adaptive zone division is introduced in this paper. Logically,...
Three critical cascading faults with nearly 2000 WTGs (Wind Turbine Generator) tripped took place in China on early 2011, from which the reactive power and voltage control issues for large wind farms are spotlighted. Some key factors inducing the cascading trip are surveyed by this paper firstly, including WTGs voltage distribution, dynamic reactive power reserves and coordination of tight-coupled...
In China, wind power industry has undergone great development in the last few years, while several cascading faults happened in 2011, reveal that terminal voltage of wind turbine generator (WTG) should be monitored and controlled. Furthermore WTGs and static var compensators/generators (SVC/SVGs) need to be coordinated to provide voltage service for the whole network. In this paper, a network model...
PJM has developed a pilot program of on-line (real time) voltage control in which a system wide Optimal Voltage Control (OVC) demonstration system has been implemented and run on-line parallel with PJM existing system at PJM control center since Jan. 2010. The pilot program was for nine months. The OVC system consists of Data I/O Management, Control Strategy Calculation, Operation Log Management and...
The feasibility and potential benefits of the system-wide Automatic Voltage Control (AVC) in PJM system are studied in this paper. A test AVC system with a hierarchical structure is adopted for simulation study, which is based on eight typical real-time snapshots from the solutions of state estimator in the PJM's Energy Management System (EMS). For each snapshot, the control action simulation is executed...
In order to meet the requirements of some important field site applications, IEC61970 Common Information Model (CIM) standard has been extended in China, such as extensions of external network equivalent model and HVDC model. The extended CIM has been applied in many Chinese Electrical Power Control Centers (EPCCs) successfully. As an example of integration of applications developed by different vendors...
Traditionally voltage control is done in a decentralized way at the power plant or substation level in China. Such a traditional mode, lacking of automatic coordination in a system level, is no longer fit for the higher requirements of security and economy of modern large power system operation. In recent years, development and field site applications of close-looped system-wide automatic voltage...
