System
Wind Farm
The other half of the challenge lies
in building the transport and
distribution networks
As the low-emission economy
evolves, building new generation
technologies is just half the
challenge

Smarter Grid
A smart electricity grid that develops to support an efficient, timely transition
to a low carbon economy to help the UK meet its carbon reduction targets,
ensure energy security and wider energy goals while minimising costs to
consumers
https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/285417/Smart_Grid_Vision_and_RoutemapFINAL.pdf
The term smart grid has
been in use since at least
2005, when it appeared in
the article "Toward A
Smart Grid" by Amin and
Wollenberg.

• Topology, parameters & settings (e.g.,
tap settings, temperature dependent line
ratings)
• Observability & controllability • Pattern (size, output of
generators, types and
location of generators,
i.e., conventional,
renewable, storage)
• Parameters
(conventional and
renewable generation
and storage)
• Parameters of generator controllers (AVRs, Governors,
PSSs, PE interface), network controllers (secondary
voltage controller), FACTS devices and HVDC line
controllers
• Contractual power flow (consequence of different market
mechanisms and price)
• Faults (type, location, duration, frequency, distribution,
impedance)
• Communications (noise, time delays and loss of signals)
• Time and spatial variation in load, load
composition, models and parameters

Nanao 3-Terminal VSC-HVDC• The world’s first three-terminal VSC HVDC system in
China.
• The pilot project with designed ratings of ±160kV/200MW-
100MW-50MW brings dispersed, intermittent clean wind
power generated on Nanao island into the mainland
Guangdong power grid through 32km of combination of
HVDC land cables, sea cables and overheard lines.

The terminal controllers determine the
behavior of the converter at the system
bus.
They are designed for the main
functions for
controlling: active power (P), reactive
power (Q), AC and the DC voltage
(Vac, Udc)
The master control optimizes the overall performance of the MTDC by regulating
the DC side voltage.
It is provided with the minimum set of functions necessary for coordinated
operation of the terminals in the DC circuit, i.e. start and stop, minimization of
losses, oscillation damping and power flow reversal, black start, AC frequency and
AC voltage support.

Frequency/Voltage Management:
• Solving unbalances through power injection adjustment (simplified).
• Outage of a converter station connecting the HVDC grid with AC grid 1, zone 1.
• Examples of Solutions:
1. Equal droop reaction causes all converters connected to the HVDC grid to contribute.
2. The schedule with AC grid 2 is corrected, resulting in only a contribution from AC grid 1
3. Control zone 1 of AC grid 1 takes the full unbalance over from the other systems.

Conclusions • As HVDC is increasingly present in power systems.
• New technology allows to provide new “services”.
• It is needed to adapt our operational procedures to make
HVDC operations an inherent part of system operations.
• Influence reaches far into neighbouring zones: both
positive and negative
• Coordination is needed.
• The framework in which the AC and DC systems are
operated will play a key role.

Frequency Stability• “Frequency stability refers to the ability of a power
system to maintain steady frequency following a severe
system upset resulting in a significant imbalance between
generation and load.”
• Frequency stability analysis concentrates on studying the
overall system stability for sudden changes in the
generation-load balance.

Quality of Frequency Stability • Gradually declining in many locations around the world –
but not due to wind power!!!
• Market imperfections around full hour shift (frequency erosion)
• Systems operated closer to their limits
• Decreased damping of oscillations
• Looking forward – e.g. UK - nuclear units increasing - 1300 to 1800 MW

Reduced Inertia in GB• The System Operability Framework (SOF) of the Great
Britain (GB) analysis indicates the system inertia (HT)
continues to decline because of the lack of synchronous
thermal power stations and high volume of converters

power, and import across our High Voltage Direct Current
(HVDC) interconnectors.

BESS in GB• The current status (June 2016) of
the electricity energy storage systems in GB is oriented to the utility-scale sector.
• The residential-scale storage is still not economically viable, and the level of commercial and industrial storage, although unknown, is thought to be quite low.
• GB has around 30 operational battery energy storage (BES) projects, many of them are demonstration projects, and with only a few of them are operational projects larger than 1 MW in size.

Storage in GB Dinorwig Power Station
The Smarter Network Storage (SNS) project aims to carry
out a range of technical and commercial innovation to tackle
the challenges associated with the low-carbon transition and
facilitate the economic adoption of storage. It is differentiated
from other LCNF electrical storage projects by its
demonstration of storage across multiple parts of the electricity
system, outside the boundaries of the distribution network. By
demonstrating this multi-purpose application of 6MW/10MWh
of energy storage at Leighton Buzzard primary substation, the
project will explore the capabilities and value in alternative
revenue streams for storage, whilst deferring traditional
network

Storage in GB• Preliminary analysis in UK suggest an additional storage
could be installed in the range of 1GW - 29GW under certainfuture scenarios by 2050, of which distribution storage isestimated to dominate bulk storage, due to the savings fromavoided distribution network costs.
• The largest BES project to date (May 2016) is KilrootAdvancion® Energy Storage Array.
• This 10 MW installation is led by AES UK & Ireland and located adjacent to coal-fired Kilroot Power Station, located north of Belfast, Northern Ireland.
• The array utilizes over 53,000 Li-ion batteries arranged in 136 separate nodes and will enhance grid reliability by providing fast response ancillary services (such as frequency regulation) as part of the System Operator Northern Ireland (SONI) existing Harmonised Ancillary Services systemGonzalez-Longatt, F. and S.

Declining Short Circuit Levels in the UKAs the short circuit level decreases, the
size of the area affected by a voltage dip
will increase.
The effects of transmission voltage dips
are not only observable across the
transmission network, but are also
observable on distribution networks in the
vicinity of the fault (the effects are “3-
dimensional”).
The critical role that reactive
current injection plays in the
response of the network to a
voltage depression.
