Faster than real time: Dynamic security assessment for foresighted control actions

In this paper, implementation of power system dynamic security assessment (DSA) into real time simulation environment is described. For this purpose, a powerful simulation system has been used and a flexible security assessment framework developed. The DSA system constructed is user oriented and enables simple evaluation of power system security. The assessment is made in respect to some user defined security constraints considering normal or contingency provoked system operation. For reporting of the results different visualization formats are available. The DSA system is fully automatic and can process any number of study cases without user interaction. It targets high flexibility in power system research and maximum performance at minimum hardware requirements.
