Wildfire Resilient Unit Commitment under Uncertain Demand
Ryan Greenough, Kohei Murakami, Michael Davidson +2
Public safety power shutoffs (PSPS) are a common pre-emptive measure to reduce wildfire risk due to power system equipment failure. System operators use PSPS to de-energize electri…
Distributed Frequency Control in Power Grids with Low and Time-Varying Inertia
Manasa Muralidharan, Jan Kleissl, Patricia Hidalgo-Gonzalez
This paper presents a distributed frequency control method for power grids with high penetration of inverter-connected resources under low and time-varying inertia due to renewable…
Dynamic Weight-Based Collaborative Optimization for Power Grid Voltage Regulation
Cristian Cortés, Hamed Valizadeh Haghi, Changfu Li +1
Power distribution grids with high PV generation are exposed to voltage disturbances due to the unpredictable nature of renewable resources. Smart PV inverters, if controlled in co…
Frequency Regulation with Heterogeneous Energy Resources: A Realization using Distributed Control
Tor Anderson, Manasa Muralidharan, Priyank Srivastava +5
This paper presents one of the first real-life demonstrations of coordinated and distributed resource control for secondary frequency response in a power distribution grid. We cond…
Coordination of OLTC and Smart Inverters for Optimal Voltage Regulation of Unbalanced Distribution Networks
Changfu Li, Vahid R. Disfani, Hamed Valizadeh Haghi +1
Photovoltaic (PV) smart inverters can improve the voltage profile of distribution networks. A multi-objective optimization framework for coordination of reactive power injection of…
Optimal Voltage Regulation of Unbalanced Distribution Networks with Coordination of OLTC and PV Generation
Changfu Li, Vahid Disfani, Hamed Valizadeh Haghi +1
Photovoltaic (PV) smart inverters can regulate voltage in distribution systems by modulating reactive power of PV systems. In this paper, an optimization framework for optimal coor…
Optimal OLTC Voltage Control Scheme to Enable High Solar Penetrations
Changfu Li, Vahid R. Disfani, Zachary K. Pecenak +2
High solar Photovoltaic (PV) penetration on distribution systems can cause over-voltage problems. To this end, an Optimal Tap Control (OTC) method is proposed to regulate On-Load T…
Smart Inverter Impacts on California Distribution Feeders with Increasing PV Penetration: A Case Study
Zachary K. Pecenak, Jan Kleissl, Vahid Rasouli Disfani
The impacts of high PV penetration on distribution feeders have been well documented within the last decade. To mitigate these impacts, interconnection standards have been amended…
Reliability of Dynamic Load Scheduling with Solar Forecast Scenarios
Abdulelah H Habib, Zachary K Pecena, Vahid R Disfani +2
This paper presents and evaluates the performance of an optimal scheduling algorithm that selects the on/off combinations and timing of a finite set of dynamic electric loads on th…
