Resilience and performance of the power grid with high penetration of renewable energy sources: the Balearic Islands as a case study
Benjamín A. Carreras, Pere Colet, José M. Reynolds-Barredo +1
We analyze the dynamics of the power grid with a high penetration of renewable energy sources using the ORNL-PSERC-Alaska (OPA) model. In particular we consider the power grid of t…
Effects of demand control on the complex dynamics of electric power system blackouts
Benjamin A. Carreras, Eder Batista Tchawou Tchuisseu, José M. Reynolds-Barredo +2
The propagation of failures and blackouts in electric networks is a complex problem. Typical models, such as the ORNL-PSerc-Alaska (OPA), are based on a combination of fast and a s…
Exploring cascading outages and weather via processing historic data
Ian Dobson, NichelleLe K. Carrington, Kai Zhou +3
We describe some bulk statistics of historical initial line outages and the implications for forming contingency lists and understanding which initial outages are likely to lead to…
The causal impact of magnetic fluctuations in slow and fast L-H transitions at TJ-II
B. Ph. van Milligen, T. Estrada, B. A. Carreras +6
This work focuses on the relationship between L-H (or L-I) transitions and MHD activity in the low magnetic shear TJ-II stellarator. It is shown that the presence of a low order ra…
Obtaining statistics of cascading line outages spreading in an electric transmission network from standard utility data
Ian Dobson, Benjamin A. Carreras, David E. Newman +1
We show how to use standard transmission line outage historical data to obtain the network topology in such a way that cascades of line outages can be easily located on the network…
Fractional Levy motion through path integrals
Ivan Calvo, Raul Sanchez, Benjamin A. Carreras
Fractional Levy motion (fLm) is the natural generalization of fractional Brownian motion in the context of self-similar stochastic processes and stable probability distributions. I…
