A novel synchronized data-driven composite scheme to enhance photovoltaic (pv) integrated power system grid stability

The performance of power networks is enhanced by the penetration of solar energy, which helps to equate continuously the generation and demand power imbalance. However, the time margin that grids must adapt to unforeseen frequency fluctuations and restore generation-demand equivalency is reduced by these linkages. Consequently, it exerts the stability and performance of the power grid at risk. Thus, it becomes vital to assess real-time system data and to recognize and implement suitable remedies to maintain a healthy system performance. In order to improve grid stability in power networks that have solar energy penetration, this manuscript suggests a data driven integrated framework. The proposed approach is a two-step framework wherein the first stage assesses impending transient instability in the system through novel Instability Evaluation (IE). Step two involves creating and deploying a Decision Boundary based Control (DBC) to stabilize an unstable system following an emergency control strategy. An IE module employing short-synchronized movement data is presented for evaluating post-disturbance transient stability (TS). In the initial cycles following the fault initiation, the IE projects the impending transient instability. Next, an innovative DBC creates an emergency remedial system for unstable processes that determines the nature, magnitude and location of the remedial action. The DBC assesses pertinent action sets that it implements to sustain system stability using a proposed Decision Assisted Inference (DAI) technique. The simulation investigations validate the aptness of suggested analysis on the performance of power system with and without PV and topological variations.
