• Process dynamic in electric utility system cover a very wide spectrum of phenomena and a wide range of disciplines.

• The dimensions and complexity of power system dynamics can well be appreciated when one realize that there are hundreds of interacting elements.

• In general way, the transients in electrical power systems are classified according to three possible timeframes: – Short-term, or electromagnetic transients;

– Mid-term, or electromechanical transients;

– Long-term transients.Short Mid Long

• Power system stability may be broadly defined as that property of a power system that enables it to remain in a state of operating equilibrium under normal operating conditions ad to regain an acceptable state of equilibrium after being subjected to a disturbance [1].

• The robustness of a system is defined by the ability of the system to maintain stable operation under normal and perturbed conditions [2].

• “Frequency stability refers to the ability of a power system to maintain steady frequency following a severe system upset resulting in a significant imbalance between generation and load.”

• Frequency stability analysis concentrates on studying the overall system stability for sudden changes in the generation-load balance.

• At 3:01.22 (27.5 GW Italian loading), the Swiss Mettrlen-Lavorgo line, which was carrying 1320 MW, trips due to a tree flashover.

• There are 3 automatic reclosings that fail at 3:03.50, and at 3:08.23, manual reclosing also fails due to a standing phase angle (SPA) problem.

3:10.47 ETrans (operator of interties between Switzerland and restof Europe) lets the GRTN (Italian operator) know of theMettlen-Lavorgo line trip (1320 MW) and the overloadingof the Sils-Soazza line (1650 MW), and requests a 300MW demand reduction to relief the overload.

3:18.40 ETrans contacts EGL (Switzerland operator) requesting thetripping of a transformer in Soazza.

3:21 GRTN reduces the power imports by 300 MW.

3:22.03 ATEL (Swiss energy company) changes the connection ofthe transformer at Lavorgo.

3:25.22 Protections trip the Sils–Soazza line (1783 MW) due to atree flashover. This is basically the beginning of thecascading events that follow, severing Italy from the rest ofEurope and leading to the collapse of the Italian system.

• Started as a “typical” transient stability problem, with separation of Italy with respect to France due to large angle differences.

• Total collapse of the system was due to a frequency stability problem:– Under frequency relays in generators were not properly

calibrated, tripping before load was tripped.

• It is the energy stored in generators because they are rotating….

They continue to rotate after the energy source is removed

Large spinning machines provide stored energy due to the rotating mass of their rotor, driving turbine shafts etc.

Engineers model this as a number of rotating masses.

• Inertia is the stored rotating energy in the system

• Following a System loss, the higher the System Inertia (assuming no frequency response) the longer it takes to reach a new steady state operating frequency.

• Modern Generation Technologies employing power electronic converters currently do not contribute to System Inertia.

• Further growth is expected in HVDC which currently does not contribute to System Inertia

• The implications of this are a substantial erosion in System Frequency Control and consequent required increases in additional reserve and response.

• Fixed speed wind turbine: can provide inertialresponse to the frequency fluctuation, however, theinertial response is generally smaller and slower thanthat of synchronous generators due to allow normal slipof 1%-2%.

• Deloading definition: – not MPPT, i.e., abandon some

wind energy.

• Advantages: – Provide sufficient reserves for

systems.

– Save investment of the reserves and storages although the wind energy may be partially lost.

– The wind power regulation is faster than the thermal power regulation due to the PWM control technology.

– The system will be more stable than MPPT condition.

• Functions:– For variable speed wind turbines.

– Providing power reserves.

– Faster than the pitch control due to the PWM technology.

– Storing more kinetic energy, like a big flywheel energy storage.

– Pitching increases wear and tear, overspeeding does not.

– Some research showed that overspeeding can improve the small signal stability.
