Stabilizing Hydro Power for the Electrical Grid
Objective
CASE STUDY
Results
Using Modelon’s Hydro and Electric Power Library, engineers set out to improve the understanding of Iceland’s Fossarvirkjun power plant by investigating load rejection and exploring worst-case scenarios during complete plant shutdowns.
• Electrical grid that is better prepared to handle disturbances and safety critical scenarios
• Improved operation, enabling faster reactions to critical disturbances

Optimization of Scheduled Production Deviation
Objective
CASE STUDY
Results
Using Modelon’s Hydro Power Library, researchers set out to decrease the deviations from the scheduled production in Sundsbarm in Norway. Deviations have a negative economic impact as overproduction leads to low price on excess power and underproduction may be fined.
• Identification of critical causes for production deviations.
• Suggested new control strategy: Model Predictive Control based on the plant model to improve safety and control performance. In collaboration with:

Hydro Power Plant Design and Extension
Typical customer concerns addressed by the library
CASE STUDY
1. Does the new control implementation function correctly, so that it can be safely commissioned?
2. Can the guide vane closing time be reduced without exceeding pressure limits?
3. What will the pressure rise and consequences be if a safety valve malfunctions?
4. Nominal plant data are available from a tender call. How does the future plant behave at part loads and during transients?
5. What would be the economic gain of a design change based on data for a typical year?
6. How will the controller react on dynamic load changes?
