On-line security assessment and control decision support for large amount wind power integrated power system

With the integration of large scale wind power, the characteristics of power system operation has been changing, and, some problems come forth. On-line security assessment and control decision support system provides the stability and security state message for dispatcher in time, and, some suggestions to improve the level of power system stability and security. To suit the requirements of large amount wind power integrated power system, the technology of on-line security assessment and control decision support must be modified. This paper focuses on the technology of on-line security assessment and control decision for operation of power system with large scale wind power and designing the support system. In the paper, the study and application of on-line security assessment and control decision support technology in China are introduced. Considering the wind power in China having some distinct characteristics such as large scale, centralized development, long-distance and high voltage transportation, the new requirements to on-line security assessment and control decision support are analyzed. They includes need for new information, on-line modelling with large scale wind farm, transfer limitation calculation under the constraint condition of wind power integration requirement, auxiliary preventive control decision based on the forecasting and adjustment properties of wind power output, coordinated emergency control wind power with hydraulic and thermal power. On the basis of technical rule for connecting wind farm into power grid and the interaction between wind power and power grid, the advices on engineering application of on-line security assessment and control decision support technology for large amount wind power integrated power system, are proposed, for example, with respect to the standard of security assessment and selection of pre-contingency sets.
