Abstract

In this paper, a scalable wide area control scheme using distributed model predictive control is proposed to enhance the angle stability of power systems following large disturbances. In this regard, dynamic model of the local subsystems in the multiarea power system is developed for the model predictive controller and each subsystem is controlled by the associated controller. The controller of each subsystem exchanges minimum information with the controllers of the neighboring subsystems to reach the final result. The proposed controller works based on optimality condition decomposition to coordinate the subsystems. In the proposed wide area control system, the available actuators are mechanical power and field voltage controller of a synchronous generator, and energy storage systems (ESS), which are able to provide synchronizing power support. The performance of the proposed transient stability controller is studied in the New England 68-bus test system. The simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method to improve the angle stability of power systems subsequent to severe disturbances in the system.
