Description
Summary:The large-scale integration of renewable energy and the increasing access to power electronic equipment lead to the low inertia of power grid, which raises severe challenges to frequency security. The low inertia makes power system more sensible to power disturbances, and therefore, evaluating frequency stability is crucial. To address this issue, a fast frequency security assessment method for power grid based on the extended SFR (system frequency response) model is proposed. In this method, an extended SFR model is established based on the characteristics of future new power systems, which are comprised of multiple frequency response sources, including induction motor load, renewable energy, and other asynchronous resources. To obtain the parameters of the proposed model, the principle and applicability of model parameter aggregation methods are explained. Considering the difficulty of obtaining all the required information in real-world situations, the parameters are obtained by parameter identification method through optimization algorithms. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed extended SFR model is verified in the WSCC-9 bus system and the parameter identification method is validated in a regional power grid. The calculation time is less than 0.03s and the accuracy is more precise than conventional SFR. The results demonstrate that the proposed extended SFR model and parameter identification method show characteristics of both rapidity and accuracy in judging the security of power systems.
