Abstract
Renewable energy and high voltage direct current connections increase the number of power electronic devices in the grid, changing how power systems operate and introducing new dynamic behavior. For this reason, it is fundamental to understand what modeling details are needed to represent the system in this new context. This paper proposes a novel model reduction approach using frequency-limited controllability and observability Gramians that preserves the link between the physical structure of the system and the state variables. This method allows understanding and analytically determining how vital each state is to the input-output behavior in different frequency ranges. The primary contribution of this paper is an algorithm that can provide intuitive results to help power system experts understand the simulation tools and minimum modeling details needed to perform different stability studies. Two case studies supported the applicability of the developed method, and a tool for MATLAB/Simulink was developed based on the findings, allowing visualization and immediate identification of the model components that are most relevant for the system dynamics under study. This tool can analyze dynamic behaviors where the cause is poorly understood and provide clarity around modeling detail requirements in converter-rich power systems.
