Nowadays, modern power converters installed in renewable power plants can provide flexible electromechanical characteristics that rely on the developed control technologies such as Synchronous Power Controller (SPC). Since high renewable penetrated power grids result in a low-inertia system, this electromechanical characteristic provides support to the dynamic stability of active power and frequency in the power generation area. This goal can be achieved through the proper tuning of virtual electromechanical parameters that are embedded in the control layers of power converters. In this paper, a novel mathematical pattern and strategy have been proposed to adjust dynamic parameters in Renewable Static Synchronous Generators controlled by SPC (RSSG-SPC). A detailed dynamic modeling was obtained for a feasible design of virtual damping coefficient and virtual moment of inertia in the electrometrical control layer of RSSG-SPC’s power converters. Mathematical solutions, modal analysis outcomes, time-domain simulation results, and real-time validations of the test in IEEE-14B benchmark confirm that the proposed method is an effective procedure for the dynamic design of RSSG-SPC to provide these dynamic stability supports in grid connection.

AbstractThe energy transition is causing many stability-related challenges for power systems. Transient stability refers to the ability of a power grid’s bus angles to retain synchronism after the occurrence of a major fault. In this paper a set-based approach is presented to assess the transient stability of power systems. The approach is based on the theory of barriers, to obtain an exact description of the boundaries of admissible sets and maximal robust positively invariant sets, respectively. We decompose a power system into generator and load components, replace couplings with bounded disturbances and obtain the sets for each component separately. From this we deduce transient stability properties for the entire system. We demonstrate the results of our approach through an example of one machine connected to one load and a multi-machine system.
