Abstract

Abstract This work discusses control aspects and stability issues of future transmission networks. With this aim, several scenarios are considered, and their behavior is compared with that of a standard power system. In particular, voltage, transient, and frequency stability issues are examined. Scenarios involve changes in the generation devices, transmission lines, and transient behavior of loads. In future power networks, generators are assumed to be distributed and decoupled from the grid through voltage source converters. While AC transmission lines cannot be realistically fully substituted with other transmission devices, a high penetration of VSC‐HVDC devices and superconducting corridors is considered. Finally, loads are considered “active,” that is, able to regulate the frequency and equipped with local energy resources and storage systems. The case study, which is based on the IEEE 14‐bus system, provides a comprehensive comparison of the behavior and the stability of the conventional and future power systems.
