Algorithm for optimization of power system short-term mode in conditions of partial uncertainty of initial information taking into account the frequency change

Abstract

Many existing methods and algorithms for optimization of short-term modes of power systems provide in calculations the introduction of a slack bus station, which ensures the balance of active power and, accordingly, the permissible frequency. In cases where the real load deviates from the planned one, determined by forecasting, the power system mode may turn out to be not optimal, and sometimes even not acceptable. This factor is especially noticeable in conditions of partial uncertainty of initial information about loads of nodes. To overcome this problem, planning of power system mode should be carried out taking into account the frequency change and, accordingly, the regulatory capabilities of all stations. This paper proposes an algorithm for optimization of modes of power systems in terms of partial uncertainty of initial information about loads, taking into account the frequency change. On the basis of computational experiments using the proposed algorithm, it is shown that taking into account the frequency change when planning modes of power systems with partially undefined loads of nodes can give a significant economic effect.
