Resilience-Motivated Distribution System Restoration Considering Electricity-Water-Gas Interdependency
Jiaxu Li, Yin Xu, Ying Wang +4
A major outage in the electricity distribution system may affect the operation of water and natural gas supply systems, leading to an interruption of multiple services to critical…
Conservation Voltage Reduction (CVR) via Two-Timescale Control in Unbalanced Power Distribution Systems
Rahul Ranjan Jha, Anamika Dubey, Kevin P. Schneider
Voltage control devices are employed in power distribution systems to reduce the power consumption by operating the system closer to the lower acceptable voltage limits; this techn…
Distributed Small-Signal Stability Conditions for Inverter-Based Unbalanced Microgrids
Sai Pushpak Nandanoori, Soumya Kundu, Wei Du +2
The proliferation of inverter-based generation and advanced sensing, controls, and communication infrastructure have facilitated the accelerated deployment of microgrids. A coordin…
Bi-Level Volt-VAR Optimization to Coordinate Smart Inverters with Voltage Control Devices
Rahul Ranjan Jha, Anamika Dubey, Chen-Ching Liu +1
Conservation voltage reduction(CVR) uses Volt-VAR optimization(VVO) methods to reduce customer power demand by controlling the feeders' voltage control devices. The objective of th…
Joint Grid Topology Reconfiguration and Design of Watt-VAR Curves for DERs
Manish K. Singh, Sina Taheri, Vassilis Kekatos +2
Operators can now remotely control switches and update the control settings for voltage regulators and distributed energy resources (DERs), thus unleashing the network reconfigurat…
Inference of Tampered Smart Meters with Validations from Feeder-Level Power Injections
Yachen Tang, Chee-Wooi Ten, Kevin P. Schneider
Tampering of metering infrastructure of an electrical distribution system can significantly cause customers' billing discrepancy. The large-scale deployment of smart meters may pot…
Identifying Parameter Space for Robust Stability in Nonlinear Networks: A Microgrid Application
Soumya Kundu, Wei Du, Sai Pushpak Nandanoori +2
As modern engineering systems grow in complexity, attitudes toward a modular design approach become increasingly more favorable. A key challenge to a modular design approach is the…
A Two-Layer Distributed Control Method for Islanded Networked Microgrid Systems
Xiaoyu Wu, Yin Xu, Xiangyu Wu +5
This paper presents a two-layer, four-level distributed control method for networked microgrid (NMG) systems, taking into account the proprietary nature of microgrid (MG) owners. T…
Coordinating Multiple Sources for Service Restoration to Enhance Resilience of Distribution Systems
Ying Wang, Yin Xu, Jinghan He +4
When a major outage occurs on a distribution system due to extreme events, microgrids, distributed generators, and other local resources can be used to restore critical loads and e…
