Abstract

Active distribution networks (ADNs) intend to manage the escalating computational complexity of renewable power grids by providing controlled subdivisions which support the operation of the transmission grid in some way. They display complex dynamical behavior greatly influenced by the chosen controllers and themselves pose a variety of challenges for the transmission grid. This work describes all elements of a continuous-time controller architecture for ADNs connected to each other through the transmission grid in a low-carbon environment including the controllers of the ADNs and the controllers of the transmission grid. Time-domain simulations are carried out for validation to illustrate the response, with a more traditional integral controller used for comparison.
