Increasing penetration of renewable energy introduces significant uncertainty into power systems. Traditional simulation-based verification methods may not be applicable due to the unknown-but-bounded feature of the uncertainty sets. Emerging set-theoretic methods have been intensively investigated to tackle this challenge. The paper comprehensively reviews these methods categorized by underlying mathematical principles, that is, set operation-based methods and passivity-based methods. Set operation-based methods are more computationally efficient, while passivity-based methods provide semi-analytical expression of reachable sets, which can be readily employed for control. Other features between different methods are also discussed and illustrated by numerical examples. A benchmark example is presented and solved by different methods to verify consistency.

Incorporating predictions of external inputs, which can otherwise be treated as disturbances, has been widely studied in control and computer science communities. These predictions are commonly referred to as preview in optimal control and lookahead in temporal logic synthesis. However, little work has been done for analyzing the value of preview information for safety control for systems with continuous state spaces. In this work, we start from showing general properties for discrete-time nonlinear systems with preview and strategies on how to determine a good preview time, and then we study a special class of linear systems, called systems in Brunovsky canonical form, and show special properties for this class of systems. In the end, we provide two numerical examples to further illustrate the value of preview in safety control.
This experiment demonstrates to engineering students that control system and power system theory are not orthogonal, but highly interrelated. It introduces a real-world power system problem to enhance time domain State Space Modelling (SSM) skills of students. It also shows how power quality is affected with real-world scenarios. Power system was modeled in State Space by following its circuit topology in a bottom-up fashion. At two different time instances of the power generator sinusoidal wave, the transmission line was switched on. Fourier transform was used to analyze resulting line currents. It validated the harmonic components, as expected, from power system theory. Students understood the effects of switching transients at various times on supply voltage sinusoid within control theory and learned time domain analysis. They were surveyed to gauge their perception of the project. Results from a before/after assessment analyzed using T-Tests showed a statistically significant enhanced learning in SSM.
Sensing and measurement systems are quintessential to the safe and reliable operation of electric power grids. Their strategic placement is of ultimate importance because it is not economically viable to install measurement systems on every node and branch of a power grid, though they need to be monitored. An overwhelming number of strategies have been developed to meet oftentimes multiple conflicting objectives. The prime challenge in formulating the problem lies in developing a heuristic or an optimization model that, though mathematically tractable and constrained in cost, leads to trustworthy technical solutions. Further, large-scale, long-term deployments pose additional challenges because the boundary conditions change as technologies evolve. For instance, the advent of new technologies in sensing and measurement, as well as in communications and networking, might impact the cost and performance of available solutions and shift initially set conditions. Also, the placement strategies developed for transmission grids might not be suitable for distribution grids, and vice versa, because of unique characteristics. Therefore, the strategies need to be flexible, to a certain extent, because no two power grids are alike. Despite the extensive literature on the present topic, the focus of published works tends to be on a specific subject, such as the optimal placement of measurements to ensure observability in transmission grids. There is a dearth of work providing a comprehensive picture for developing optimal placement strategies. Because of the ongoing efforts on the modernization of electric power grids, there is a need to consolidate the status quo while exposing its limitations to inform policymakers, industry stakeholders, and researchers on the research-and-development needs to push the boundaries for innovation.
This paper considers a constrained discrete-time linear system subject to actuation attacks. The attacks are modelled as false data injections to the system, such that the total input (control input plus injection) satisfies hard input constraints. W e establish a sufficient condition under which it is not possible to maintain the states of the system within a compact state constraint set for all possible realizations of the actuation attack. The developed condition is a simple function of the spectral radius of the system, the relative sizes of the input and state constraint sets, and the proportion of the input constraint set allowed to the attacker.
We employ a novel data-enabled predictive control (DeePC) algorithm in voltage source converter (VSC) based high-voltage DC (HVDC) stations to perform safe and optimal wide-area control for power system oscillation damping. Conventional optimal wide- area control is model-based. However, in practice detailed and accurate parametric power system models are rarely available. In contrast, the DeePC algorithm uses only input/output data measured from the unknown system to predict the future trajectories and calculate the optimal control policy. We showcase that the DeePC algorithm can effectively attenuate inter-area oscillations even in the presence of measurement noise, communication delays, nonlinear loads and uncertain load fluctuations. We investigate the performance under different matrix structures as data-driven predictors. Furthermore, we derive a novel Min-Max DeePC algorithm to be applied independently in multiple VSC-HVDC stations to mitigate inter-area oscillations, which enables decentralized and robust optimal wide-area control. Further, we discuss how to relieve the computational burden of the Min-Max DeePC by reducing the dimension of prediction uncertainty and how to leverage disturbance feedback to reduce the conservativeness of robustification. We illustrate our results with high-fidelity, nonlinear, and noisy simulations of a four-area test system.
