With increasing changes in the contemporary energy system, it becomes essential to test the autonomous control strategies for distributed energy resources in a controlled environment to investigate power grid stability. Power hardware-in-the-loop (PHIL) concept is an efficient approach for such evaluations in which a virtually simulated power grid is interfaced to a real hardware device. This strongly coupled software-hardware system introduces obstacles that need attention for smooth operation of the laboratory setup to validate robust control algorithms for decentralized grids. This paper presents a novel methodology and its implementation to develop a test-bench for a real-time PHIL simulation of a typical power distribution grid to study the dynamic behavior of the real power components in connection with the simulated grid. The application of hybrid simulation in a single software environment is realized to model the power grid which obviates the need to simulate the complete grid with a lower discretized sample-time. As an outcome, an environment is established interconnecting the virtual model to the real-world devices. The inaccuracies linked to the power components are examined at length and consequently a suitable compensation strategy is devised to improve the performance of the hardware under test (HUT). Finally, the compensation strategy is also validated through a simulation scenario.

Abstract From the perspective of meeting the power quality requirements of users, the article analyses the characteristics of traditional voltage and reactive power control mode and the regional power grid reactive voltage optimization centralized closed-loop control mode (AVC system) based on the dispatch automation system (SCADA/EMS) from the perspective of technical management. Combining the reactive power/voltage real-time optimization control model, a real-time optimization control method of the regional power grid based on the improved differential evolution algorithm is proposed. The particle swarm algorithm is combined with the characteristics of reactive power/voltage control to improve the initial particle quality, reduce the optimization space, and introduce a crossover operator to improve the calculation speed and efficiency of the algorithm. Taking an actual regional power grid as an example, the simulation calculation of reactive power/voltage real-time optimization is carried out. The results show that the proposed algorithm and control strategy are feasible and effective.
