this paper presents a new centralized adaptive method under frequency load shedding. sometimes, after initial frequency drop following severe disturbances, although the system frequency returns to its permissible value, however, the system might become unstable due to voltage problems. in this regard, the paper proposes a new centralized adaptive load shedding method to enhance the voltage stab...

In recent years several catastrophic power systems blackouts have occurred worldwide. Various reasons have been declared for these failures. Economical limitations due to power system restructuring restrictions, inadvertent operation of protective relays and inefficient design of conventional load shedding schemes are of the most important reasons causing these blackouts. In fact, due to both e...

This paper presents a new centralized adaptive method under frequency load shedding. Sometimes, after initial frequency drop following severe disturbances, although the system frequency returns to its permissible value, however, the system might become unstable due to voltage problems.

This paper presents transient stability analysis and enhancement of Industrial Cogeneration Plant (ICP) using Artificial Neural Network (ANN) based adaptive load shedding. By selecting the total in-plant generation, spinning reserve, total plant load and rate of change of frequency as the input neurons of the ANN, the minimum amount of load shedding is determined to maintain in-plant load-gener...

Recent blackouts around the world question the reliability of conventional and adaptive load shedding techniques in avoiding such power outages. To address this issue, reliable techniques are required to provide fast and accurate load shedding to prevent collapse in the power system. Computational intelligence techniques, due to their robustness and flexibility in dealing with complex non-linea...

power system blackouts have become a serious problem for electric utilities especially in recent years. different forms of system instability have emerged in recent blackouts, such as voltage instability and frequency instability. to counteract each form of system instability, special algorithms have been designed in the protection system, e.g. under frequency load shedding (ufls) and under vol...

This paper addresses a multiagent-based distributed load shedding scheme to restore frequency for the microgrids during islanded operation. The objective of the proposed scheme is to realize a distributed load shedding considering its associated cost and the capacity of the flexible loads. There are two advantages of the proposed scheme: (1) it is a distributed scheme using average-consensus th...

This paper presents an adaptive Under Frequency Load Shedding scheme based on Wide Area Measurement System. Due to the lack of enough adaptability to the operation state of the system, the traditional successive approximation under frequency load shedding method will cause excessive cut or undercut problems inevitably. This method consists first in a comprehensive weight index including load ch...
