Comparative Performance of Inverted-Based Generation using Synchonverter during Transient Stability Conditions

Inverter-based generation (IBG) is critical in achieving a dependable and resilient electrical system while meeting the net-zero emission goal. The enormous integration of IBG tends to produce various issues, including reduced rotational inertia and reduced short circuit levels. Several scientific publications agree that the voltage source...

Cyber Attacks on Power Grids: Causes and Propagation of Cascading Failures

Cascading effects in the power grid involve an uncontrolled, successive failure of elements. The root cause of such failures is the combined occurrence of multiple, statistically rare events that may result in a blackout. With increasing digitalisation, power systems are vulnerable to emergent cyber threats. Furthermore, such threats are not...

Coordinated tuning of MMC-HVDC interconnection links and PEM electrolyzers for fast frequency support in a multiarea electrical power system

Modernization of power systems leads to more power electronic interfaced units in the generation, demand, and transmission. Examples are remotely installed renewable energy sources, loads with constant power, or high voltage direct current (HVDC) corridors. These changes significantly affect the frequency stability margins of the system and...

Wide-Area Damping of Sub-Synchronous Oscillations Excited by Large Wind Power Plants

Power electronic interfaced generation (PEIG) has become significantly dominant in the electrical power grid. This development is leading to a decrease in systemic inertia and damping against electrical oscillations. This causes the introduction of new and faster dynamic phenomena. One of these phenomena is sub-synchronous control interaction ...

Future Dutch Electricity Grid: Assessing the Potential of Overplanting in Photovoltaic Systems

This paper concerns with the determination of a suitable level of overplanting for photovoltaic systems. For this purpose, six futuristic operational scenarios for the Dutch electrical power system are generated for year 2050. A synthetic model is developed by using DIgSILENT Power Factory 2022 SP3 to investigate the steady-state systemic...

Cyber-Physical Testbed Co-simulation Real-Time: Normal and Abnormal System Frequency Response

Future carbon-neutral power systems impose many challenges; one is the urgent need for a simulation platform that allows replicating the complex systems’ actual dynamic performance. This paper shows the results of implementing a cyber-physical testbed co-simulation in real-time to analyse the system frequency response considering primary...
