The rapid deployment of distributed energy resources (DERs) in distribution networks has brought challenges to balance the system and stabilize frequency. DERs have the ability to provide frequency regulation; however, existing dynamic frequency simulation tools-which were developed mainly for the transmission system-lack the capability to simulate distribution network dynamics with high penetrations of DERs. Although electromagnetic transient (EMT) simulation tools can simulate distribution network dynamics, the computation efficiency limits their use for large-scale transmission-and-distribution (T&D) simulations. This paper presents an efficient T&D dynamic frequency co-simulation framework for DER frequency response based on the HELICS platform and existing off-the-shelf simulators. The challenge of synchronizing frequency between the transmission network and DERs hosted in the distribution network is approached by detailed modeling of DERs in frequency dynamic models while DER phasor models are also preserved in the distribution networks. Thereby, local voltage constraints can be respected when dispatching the DER power for frequency response. The DER frequency responses (primary and secondary)-are simulated in case studies to validate the proposed framework. Lastly, fault-induced delayed voltage recovery (FIDVR) event of a large system is presented to demonstrate the efficiency and effectiveness of the overall framework.

The present distribution grids generally have limited sensing capabilities and are therefore characterized by low observability. Improved observability is a prerequisite for increasing the hosting capacity of distributed energy resources such as sola r photovoltaics (PV) in distribution grids. In this context, this paper presents learning-aided low-voltage estimation using untapped but readily available and widely distributed sensors from cable television (CATV) networks. The CATV sensors offer timely local voltage magnitude sensing with 5-minute resolution and can provide an order of magnitude more data on the state of a distribution system than currently deployed utility sensors. The proposed solution incorporates voltage readings from neighboring CATV sensors, taking into account spatio-temporal aspects of the observations, and estimates single-phase voltage magnitudes at all non-monitored buses using random forest. The effectiveness of the proposed approach was demonstrated using a 1572-bus feeder from the SMART-DS data set for two case studies - passive distribution feeder (without PV) and active distribution feeder (with PV). The analysis was conducted on simulated data, and the results show voltage estimates with a high degree of accuracy, even at extremely low percentages of observable nodes.
The increasing penetration of distributed energy resources (DERs) in the distribution networks has turned the conventionally passive load buses into active buses that can provide grid services for the transmission system. To take advantage of the DER s in the distribution networks, this letter formulates a transmission-and-distribution (T&D) systems co-optimization problem that achieves economic dispatch at the transmission level and optimal voltage regulation at the distribution level by leveraging large generators and DERs. A primal-dual gradient algorithm is proposed to solve this optimization problem jointly for T&D systems, and a distributed market-based equivalent of the gradient algorithm is used for practical implementation. The results are corroborated by numerical examples with the IEEE 39-Bus system connected with 7 different distribution networks.
In this paper, we present a data-driven secondary controller for regulating to some desired values several variables of interest in a power system, namely, electrical frequency, voltage magnitudes at critical buses, and active power flows through cri tical lines. The power generation system is based on distributed energy resources (DERs) interfaced with either grid-forming (GFM) or grid-following (GFL) inverters. The secondary controller is based on online feedback optimization leveraging the learned sensitivities of the changes in the system frequency, voltage magnitudes at critical buses, and active power flows through critical lines to the changes in inverter active and reactive power setpoints. To learn the sensitivities accurately from data, the feedback optimization has a built-in mechanism for keeping the secondary control inputs persistently exciting without degrading its performance. The feedback optimization also utilizes the learned power-voltage characteristics of photovoltaic (PV) arrays to compute DC-link voltage setpoints so as to allow the PV arrays to track the power setpoints. To learn the power-voltage characteristics, we separately execute a data-driven approach that fits a concave polynomial to the collected power-voltage measurements by solving a sum-of-squares (SoS) optimization. We showcase the secondary controller using the modified IEEE-14 bus test system, in which conventional energy sources are replaced with inverter-interfaced DERs.
Power distribution systems are experiencing a large-scale integration of Converter-Interfaced Distributed Energy Resources (CIDERs). This complicates the analysis and mitigation of harmonics, whose creation and propagation are facilitated by the inte ractions of converters and their controllers through the grid. In this paper, a method for the calculation of the so-called Harmonic Power-Flow (HPF) in three-phase grids with CIDERs is proposed. The distinguishing feature of this HPF method is the generic and modular representation of the system components. Notably, as opposed to most of the existing approaches, the coupling between harmonics is explicitly considered. The HPF problem is formulated by combining the hybrid nodal equations of the grid with the closed-loop transfer functions of the CIDERs, and solved using the Newton-Raphson method. The grid components are characterized by compound electrical parameters, which allow to represent both transposed or non-transposed lines. The CIDERs are represented by modular linear time-periodic systems, which allows to treat both grid-forming and grid-following control laws. The methods accuracy and computational efficiency are confirmed via time-domain simulations of the CIGRE low-voltage benchmark microgrid. This paper is divided in two parts, which focus on the development (Part I) and the validation (Part II) of the proposed method.
Developing effective strategies to rapidly support grid frequency while minimizing loss in case of severe contingencies is an important requirement in power systems. While distributed responsive load demands are commonly adopted for frequency regulat ion, it is difficult to achieve both rapid response and global accuracy in a practical and cost-effective manner. In this paper, the cyber-physical design of an Internet-of-Things (IoT) enabled system, called Grid Sense, is presented. Grid Sense utilizes a large number of distributed appliances for frequency emergency support. It features a local power loss $Delta P$ estimation approach for frequency emergency control based on coordinated edge intelligence. The specifically designed smart outlets of Grid Sense detect the frequency disturbance event locally using the parameters sent from the control center to estimate active power loss in the system and to make rapid and accurate switching decisions soon after a severe contingency. Based on a modified IEEE 24-bus system, numerical simulations and hardware experiments are conducted to demonstrate the frequency support performance of Grid Sense in the aspects of accuracy and speed. It is shown that Grid Sense equipped with its local $Delta P$-estimation frequency control approach can accurately and rapidly prevent the drop of frequency after a major power loss.
