Preventive-Corrective Coordinated Transient Stability Dispatch of Power Systems With Uncertain Wind Power

Abstract

This paper proposes a new coordinated method for preventive generation rescheduling and corrective load shedding to maintain power system transient stability under uncertain wind power variation. A two-step bi-level optimization model is proposed where generation rescheduling and load shedding are coordinated by a risk coordination parameter, which adjusts the total coordination cost in the upper level. Then, based on Extended Equal Area Criterion (EEAC) and trajectory sensitivities, the non-linear risk and stability constraints are converted into the linear form for generation rescheduling cost and load shedding cost optimization in the lower level, respectively. Uncertain wind power output is modeled as a small number of robust test scenarios. Finally, the golden section search is applied to solve the bi-level problem. The proposed method is validated on the New-England 39-bus system by using commercial grade software. The computational efficiency, economic optimality, and stability robustness under random wind power of the method are demonstrated.
