Re-dispatching generation to increase power system security margin and support low voltage bus

Re-Dispatching Generation to Increase Power System Security Margin and Support Low Voltage Bus

This article proposes a new method to increase a power system's security margin and/or support its low voltage buses by re-dispatching generator outputs, using a normal vector found at a voltage collapse boundary or a low voltage boundary (LVB). This method uses the normal vector as an indicator to change the generation direction so that more power can be transferred before reaching a boundary ...

Voltage Security Margin Assessment

A Novel Index for Online Voltage Stability Assessment Based on Correlation Characteristic of Voltage Profiles

Abstract: Voltage instability is a major threat for security of power systems. Preserving voltage security margin at a certain limit is a vital requirement for today’s power systems. Assessment of voltage security margin is a challenging task demanding sophisticated indices. In this paper, for the purpose of on line voltage security assessment a new index based on the correlation characteristic...

Low power high-speed multithreshold voltage CMOS bus architectures

Low power, high-speed bus architectures, based on low swing voltage technique, using multithreshold voltage transistors are proposed in this paper. Three different classes of driver/repeater/receiver circuits are introduced. The driver circuits are comprised of high threshold voltage MOSFET transistors, in order to reduce their output swing level voltage. For re-pulling up the low swing voltage...

Scheduling security constraint unit commitment for power system including stochastic wind power generation

This paper introduces a new approach for scheduling security constraint unit commitment (SCUC) including wind farms. Because of uncertainty in wind power production, we tried to develop a new method for incorporating wind power generation in power plant scheduling. For this, wind power generation modeled with unit commitment in a non-linear optimization problem and simulated by submitting diffe...
