Abstract :
This paper presents zones for the control and operation of future complex power systems, which could be highly distributed both in terms of generation sources but also concerning the control and decision making components. The zones presented are sub regions of a power network and constitute sympathetic entities in terms of operational flexibility, with potentially dynamic boundaries, serving a judiciously selected control algorithm or technique. The IEEE 57-bus power system is used as a case study and the significance of the control intelligence to zoning is further emphasized.
