Abstract
Intentional controlled islanding (ICI) is the last resort to split an endangered power system into smaller islands to prevent blackout. New lines that are planned by transmission expansion planning (TEP) can affect the stability of islands during ICI. In this paper, an ICI-TEP method is proposed to improve the stability of islands by more efficient planning of transmission assets. Moreover, by developing a criterion for the frequency of center of inertia (COI) in each island, the frequency deviations of generators from the COI frequency are minimized to result in more stable islands. The proposed ICI-TEP, incorporating AC network representation, is modeled as mixed-integer linear programming and quadratic convex problems ensuring tractability. A Benders decomposition strategy is also proposed to solve the problem. Results of testing the proposed ICI-TEP method on IEEE 39-bus and 300-bus test systems confirm its effectiveness, compared to conventional TEP, in terms of coping with sever disturbances by creating more stable islands with a lower load shedding.
