Predicting Estimated Times of Restoration for Electrical Outages Using Longitudinal Tabular Transformers
Bogireddy Sai Prasanna Teja, Valliappan Muthukaruppan, Carls Benjamin
Utilities publish Estimated Times of Restoration (ETRs) for customer-facing storm outages, and their accuracy governs whether customers can make sound decisions about food, medical…
Multi-Feeder Restoration using Multi-Microgrid Formation and Management
Valliappan Muthukaruppan, Rongxing Hu, Ashwin Shirsat +4
This papers highlights the benefit of coordinating resources on mulitple active distribution feeders during severe long duration outages through multi-microgrid formation. A graph-…
A Novel Feeder-level Microgrid Unit Commitment Algorithm Considering Cold-load Pickup, Phase Balancing, and Reconfiguration
Rongxing Hu, Ashwin Shirsat, Valliappan Muthukaruppan +8
This paper presents a novel 2-stage microgrid unit commitment (Microgrid-UC) algorithm considering cold-load pickup (CLPU) effects, three-phase load balancing requirements, and fea…
A Supervisory Volt/VAR Control Scheme for Coordinating Voltage Regulators with Smart Inverters on a Distribution System
Valliappan Muthukaruppan, Yue Shi, Mesut Baran
This paper focuses on the effective use of smart inverters for Volt/Var control (VVC) on a distribution system. New smart inverters offer Var support capability but for their effec…
Feeder Microgrid Management on an Active Distribution System during a Severe Outage
Valliappan Muthukaruppan, Ashwin Shirsat, Rongxing Hu +7
Forming a microgrid on a distribution system with large scale outage after a severe weather event is emerging as a viable solution to improve resiliency at the distribution level.…
SA-HMTS: A Secure and Adaptive Hierarchical Multi-timescale Framework for Resilient Load Restoration Using A Community Microgrid
Ashwin Shirsat, Valliappan Muthukaruppan, Rongxing Hu +8
Distribution system integrated community microgrids (CMGs) can partake in restoring loads during extended duration outages. At such times, the CMG is challenged with limited resour…
A Load Switching Group based Feeder-level Microgrid Energy Management Algorithm for Service Restoration in Power Distribution System
Rongxing Hu, Yiyan Li, Si Zhang +6
This paper presents a load switching group based energy management system (LSG-EMS) for operating microgrids on a distribution feeder powered by one or multiple grid-forming distri…
Hierarchical Multi-timescale Framework For Operation of Dynamic Community Microgrid
Ashwin Shirsat, Valliappan Muthukaruppan, Rongxing Hu +4
Distribution system integrated community microgrids (CMGs) can restore loads during extended outages. The CMG is challenged with limited resource availability, absence of a robust…
