A Modified Version of the IEEE 39-bus Test System for the Day-Ahead Market

Reaching net-zero emissions within the proposed time requires an enormous effort from the energy sector, and it is even more challenging for the electricity infrastructure. This article offers a modified version of the IEEE 39-bus system specifically created to allow zonal day-ahead market (ZDAM) simulations. The system representation is based...

Zonal Day-Ahead Energy Market: A Modified Version of the IEEE 39-bus Test System

The increasing penetration of renewable energy resources (RES) in transmission system operating conditions require a suitable test system and a dataset to cope with current issues. RES penetration remarkably affects day-ahead market outcomes regarding zonal prices and dispatched generation levels. For this purpose, zonal day-ahead energy market...

Implementation of slow coherency based controlled islanding using DIgSILENT powerfactory and MATLAB

Intentional controlled islanding is a novel emergency control technique to mitigate wide-area instabilities by intelligently separating the power network into a set of self-sustainable islands. During the last decades, it has gained an increased attention due to the recent severe blackouts all over the world. Moreover, the increasing...

Response of Low Voltage Networks with High Photovoltaic Systems Penetration to Transmission Network Faults

The need for fault ride-through (FRT) capability is not yet documented for the low voltage connected DG. The realization that an increase in the capacity of installed DG power in the specific voltage level can trigger disconnection, in case of transmission faults, of massive amounts of power from DG and jeopardize system stability is forming. In...
