Abstract:
Modern real-time measurement equipments and associated communication/computing networks allow developing advanced power system control architectures able to identify dangerous states of power systems, and, when necessary, evaluate and apply remedial control actions. An approach, derived by a dynamic optimization methodology, for evaluating response-based control actions and enhance power system security, is presented. In this paper, studies performed for wide-area control of transient phenomena are reviewed. Despite severe computational efforts and time requirements, the authors’ position is that the nowadays technology can make the approach feasible.
