Overview


What is Power System Stability?


Definition of stability:

Power system stability is the ability of an electric power

system, for a given initial operating condition, to regain a

state of operating equilibrium after being subjected to a

physical disturbance, with most system variables bounded

so that practically the entire system remains intact.

Power System Stability


• Rotor angle stability (transient stability, small-signal stability)

• Frequency stability

• Voltage stability (short-term, long-term, small disturbance, large disturbance)

Types of Stability


Rotor Angle Stability


What is Rotor Angle?

Reference Machine Synchronous Machine 2

Rotor angle


Large signal rotor angle stability (Transient stability)

Ability of a power system to maintain synchronism during severe

disturbances, e.g.

– Short circuit fault

– Loss of generation

– Large step loading (or loss of load)

Large signal stability depends on system properties and the type

of disturbance (not only a system property)

– Analysis using time domain simulations

– Critical fault clearing time

• Significance of transient stability depends on several factors,

e.g.

– Distribution of synchronous generation: highly centralised

vs highly dispersed

– Types of machines and controllers: same type of prime

mover, AVR and governor vs completely different types

• Highly centralised power systems with generators of the same

make / model are typically more robust against transient instability

Transient Stability in Island Networks


Small signal rotor angle stability (Oscillatory stability)

Ability of a power system to maintain synchronism under small disturbances

The following oscillatory phenomena are of particular concern:

– Local modes

– Inter-area modes

– Control modes

– Torsional modes

Analysis using modal / eigenvalue analysis

Small Signal Stability


Small Signal Stability

• Td = damping torque

• Ts = synchronising torque


• Most studies suggest that small-signal stability is not a

significant issue

– In the EirGrid study [1], increased wind penetration actually

improved damping in the oscillatory modes

– A study by Potamianakis and Vournas [2], which reflects small

systems in the Greek isles, also shows that small-signal stability

is not a major issue

Frequency Stability


Frequency stability

Ability of a power system to compensate for a power deficit

Frequency Stability

Source: EirGrid [1]


Frequency Stability


How a typical power system compensates for a power deficit:

1. Inertial reserve (network time constant)

– Lost power is compensated by the energy stored in rotating masses of all generators -> Frequency decreasing

2. Primary control (1s to 15s):

– Lost power is compensated by an increase in production of primary controlled units. -> Frequency drop partly compensated

3. Secondary control (15s to 3min):

– Lost power is compensated by secondary controlled units. Frequency and area exchange flows reestablished

4. Re-Dispatch of Generation

Description of freq. disturbance example [2]

The electricity grid in the island is an interconnectionbetween NIE (northern Ireland Electricity) and ESB(Electricity Supply Board) systemsPower flows from the north to the south via normalconnectionsHVDC line (Moyle interconnection) imports active powerfrom ScotlandWhen NIE and ESB lose synchronism, north will be powerrich and south will be power poor; frequencies will deviate



References


To stop frequency deviations when the NIE-ESB line is out,signals are sent to curtail the flow of active power in theHVDC lineBy curtailing a pre-defined quantity of power, systemfrequency deviations can be limited



References


on 8/5/2005, the system was operating normallyApproximately 370 MW of power was flowing N-S on theNIE-ESB lineHVDC lines were importing 115 MW from Scotland

Around 10 : 30AM, a wrongly generated signal caused a−280 MW step change in the HVDC flow causing 165 MWexport to ScotlandNIE-ESB line was operational and the above action causeda drop in frequency to 49.52 HzPrimary controls for operating reserves pulled the systemfreq. back to 49.86 Hz



References


Following this, in 2 more minutes, another wrong sginalwas sent to the HVDC interconnection causing anotherstep change of −280 MWTotal export from Ireland to Scotland on the HVDC lineswent from 165 MW to 445 MWSystem frequency dipped further causing two generationunits (475 MW) to trip from the system



References


This was due to the action of ‘Rate of change of frequency’relaysIreland grid experienced a loss of over 1000 MW in under 5minutesUnder freq. load shedding relays helped stop the decreasein freq. at 48.41 HzSystem freq. recovered to 49.5 Hz in 11 minutes from thestart of the event



• Frequency stability is a significant issue in small island grids

due to low system inertias

– Low system inertia => high sensitivity to frequency deviations

– Large frequency deviations after a disturbance are more likely

– Frequency deviations may cause activation of load-shedding,

over/under-frequency or ROCOF relays

Frequency Stability in Island Networks


• Considerations:

– Spinning reserve to cover contingencies and limit frequency

deviations

• More spinning reserve = higher level of contingency that can

be suffered by the system without collapse

• More spinning reserve = more inertia = smaller freq deviations

• More spinning reserve = higher generator running costs

– Minimum loading of thermal generators (e.g. typically 40 – 60%

for diesel generators to avoid cylinder bore glazing)

Frequency Stability in Island Networks


Voltage Stability


Voltage stability refers to the ability of a power system to

maintain steady voltages at all buses in the system after being

subjected to a disturbance.

• Small disturbance voltage stability (Steady-state voltage stability)

– Ability to maintain steady voltages when subjected to small

disturbances, e.g. increasing load, change in solar PV output

• Large signal voltage stability (Dynamic voltage stability)

– Ability to maintain steady voltages after following large disturbances,

e.g. transmission line trip

Voltage Stability


Small-Signal:

- Small disturbance

Large-Signal

- System fault

- Loss of generation

Long-Term - PV Curves (load flows)

- QV Curves

- Long-term dynamic models

including tap-changers, var-

control, excitation limiters, etc.

- PV Curves (load flows)

of the faulted state.

- Long-term dynamic models

including tap-changers, var-

control, excitation limiters, etc.

Short-Term - Typically not a problem and not

studied

- Dynamic models (short-term),

special importance on dynamic

load modeling, stall effects etc.

• Voltage instability is mainly caused when a power system

cannot meet its demand for reactive power.

• Problem is much the same for islands as for interconnected grids.

Factors influencing voltage stability include:

– Weaknesses in the network (subject to local voltage instability)

– High system loading

– Distances between generation and load

– Availability of reactive power support

– Dynamic effects, e.g. OLTCs, field excitation limiters, SVCs, etc

– Load characteristics, e.g. induction motors (air-conditioning)

Voltage Stability in Island Networks


Renewable Energy Integration and Stability


• Frequency stability:

– Renewable energy sources are often connected via a converter

interface and have no inertia (as seen from the grid)

– Replacing synchronous generators with sources using a

converter interface therefore reduces total system inertia and is

more sensitive to frequency deviations

– Thermal generators may run under minimum load if displaced

by renewable energy sources

• Potential mitigation measures:

– Minimum system inertia, i.e. minimum number of synchronous

generators online (spinning reserve)

– Under-frequency load shedding

– Energy storage with fast response [4]

– Demand side management (DSM), i.e. smart grid technologies

• Transient stability:

– Effects of renewable energy integration on transient stability

must be assessed on a case-by-case basis and depends more

on distribution of synchronous generators and controller types

– Some past studies indicate that for moderate penetrations e.g.

30 – 40%, renewable energy sources do not significantly affect

transient stability [1]


– Depending on grid characteristics, it may be necessary to limit

penetration of renewable energy sources (case-by-case)



• Voltage stability:

– Renewable energy sources with limited or no reactive power

control (e.g. fixed-speed induction wind turbines, household-

scale PV inverters) will decrease voltage stability

– Integrating renewable energy sources into weak parts of the

grid can actually improve voltage stability


– Use renewable energy sources that are capable of reactive

power control

– Connect renewable energy sources at weak parts of the grid
