Examining Impact of Distribution System Characteristics on Transmission Security Assessment of Future Power Systems |
Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
The nature and characteristics of distribution systems are changing continuously with the increased penetration of distributed energy resources. With this, the need for examining the transmission and distribution (T&D) interaction while assessing the voltage security has become significant. In much of the analysis and practices reported so far, voltage security assessment studies are performed separately for T&D systems. Thus, a transmission system operator (TSO) is oblivious to the operations and controls taking place at the distribution system (DS) level. Some of the recent studies examine the impact of an active DS on the voltage security assessment of future power systems. However, the effect of various factors like voltage dependency of loads, reactive power capability of renewable energy sources (RES), location of distributed generation units, and network losses on the voltage stability margin (VSM) of transmission system has not been reported comprehensively so far. This paper first theoretically examines the impact of these factors on VSM. Then, to get the more realistic results for VSM, continuation power flow (CPF) is performed in a coordinated fashion including both T&D systems. The simulations show that considering losses, load characteristics dependency on voltage and reactive power limits of RES in a DS for transmission voltage security assessment studies lead to a more rational outcome than when neglected. |
