Understanding the feasible power flow region is of central importance to power system analysis. In this paper, we propose a geometric view of the power system loadability problem. By using rectangular coordinates for complex voltages, we provide an integrated geometric understanding of active and reactive power flow equations on loadability boundaries. Based on such an understanding, we develop a linear programming framework to 1) verify if an operating point is on the loadability boundary, 2) compute the margin of an operating point to the loadability boundary, and 3) calculate a loadability boundary point of any direction. The proposed method is computationally more efficient than existing methods since it does not require solving nonlinear optimization problems or calculating the eigenvalues of the power flow Jacobian. Standard IEEE test cases demonstrate the capability of the new method compared to the current state-of-the-art methods.

In this letter we propose a generalized branch model to be used in DC optimal power flow (DCOPF) applications. Besides AC lines and transformers, the formulation allows for representing variable susceptance branches, phase shifting transformers, HVDC lines, zero impedance lines and open branches. The possibility to model branches with concurrently variable susceptance and controllable phase shift angles is also provided. The model is suited for use in DCOPF formulations aimed at the optimization of remedial actions so as to exploit power system flexibility; applications to small-, medium- and large-scale systems are presented to this purpose.
For optimal power flow problems with chance constraints, a particularly effective method is based on a fixed point iteration applied to a sequence of deterministic power flow problems. However, a priori, the convergence of such an approach is not necessarily guaranteed. This article analyses the convergence conditions for this fixed point approach, and reports numerical experiments including for large IEEE networks.
The impasse surface is an important concept in the differential-algebraic equation (DAE) model of power systems, which is associated with short-term voltage collapse. This paper establishes a necessary condition for a system trajectory hitting the impasse surface. The condition is in terms of admittance matrices regarding the power network, generators and loads, which specifies the pattern of interaction between those system components that can induce voltage collapse. It applies to generic DAE models featuring high-order synchronous generators, static load components, induction motors and a lossy power network. We also identify a class of static load parameters that prevents power systems from hitting the impasse surface; this proves a conjecture made by Hiskens that has been unsolved for decades. Moreover, the obtained results lead to an early indicator of voltage collapse and a novel viewpoint that inductive compensation has a positive effect on preventing short-term voltage collapse, which are verified via numerical simulations.
During the last decades, significant advances have been made in the area of power system stability and control. Nevertheless, when this analysis is carried out by means of decentralized conditions in a general network, it has been based on conservative assumptions such as the adoption of lossless networks. In the current paper, we present a novel approach for decentralized stability analysis and control of power grids through the transformation of both the network and the bus dynamics into the system reference frame. In particular, the aforementioned transformation allows us to formulate the network model as an input-output system that is shown to be passive even if the networks lossy nature is taken into account. We then introduce a broad class of bus dynamics that are viewed as multivariable input/output systems compatible with the network formulation, and appropriate passivity conditions are imposed on those that guarantee stability of the power network. We discuss the opportunities and advantages offered by this approach while explaining how this allows the inclusion of advanced models for both generation and power flows. Our analysis is verified through applications to the Two Area Kundur and the IEEE 68-bus test systems with both primary frequency and voltage regulation mechanisms included.
This paper considers the phenomenon of distinct regional frequencies recently observed in some power systems. First, a reduced-order mathematical model describing this behaviour is developed. Then, techniques to solve the model are discussed, demonstrating that the post-fault frequency evolution in any given region is equal to the frequency evolution of the Centre Of Inertia plus certain inter-area oscillations. This finding leads to the deduction of conditions for guaranteeing frequency stability in all regions of a power system, a deduction performed using a mixed analytical-numerical approach that combines mathematical analysis with regression methods on simulation samples. The proposed stability conditions are linear inequalities that can be implemented in any optimisation routine allowing the co-optimisation of all existing ancillary services for frequency support: inertia, multi-speed frequency response, load damping and an optimised largest power infeed. This is the first reported mathematical framework with explicit conditions to maintain frequency stability in a power system exhibiting inter-area oscillations in frequency.
