Cyber-Physical Attack Leveraging Subsynchronous Resonance
Bosong Li, Baosen Zhang, Daniel S. Kirschen
This paper discusses how a cyber attack could take advantage of torsional resonances in the shaft of turbo-generators to inflict severe physical damage to a power system. If attack…
Should Storage-Centric Tariffs be Extended to Commercial Flexible Demand?
Lane D. Smith, Daniel S. Kirschen
Further electrification of the economy is expected to sharpen ramp rates and increase peak loads. Flexibility from the demand side, which new technologies might facilitate, can hel…
Bi-level Volt/VAR Optimization in Distribution Networks with Smart PV Inverters
Yao Long, Daniel S. Kirschen
Optimal Volt/VAR control (VVC) in distribution networks relies on an effective coordination between the conventional utility-owned mechanical devices and the smart residential phot…
Adaptive Coalition Formation-Based Coordinated Voltage Regulation in Distribution Networks
Yao Long, Ryan T. Elliott, Daniel S. Kirschen
High penetrations of photovoltaic (PV) systems can cause severe voltage quality problems in distribution networks. This paper proposes a distributed control strategy based on the d…
Impacts of Time-of-Use Rate Changes on the Electricity Bills of Commercial Consumers
Lane D. Smith, Daniel S. Kirschen
Changes in the profile of prices in wholesale electricity markets prompt utilities to redesign their tariffs and adjust their time-of-use periods to ensure a more adequate cost rec…
Stabilizing Transient Disturbances With Utility-Scale Inverter-Based Resources
Ryan T. Elliott, Payman Arabshahi, Daniel S. Kirschen
This paper presents a trajectory tracking control strategy that modulates the active power injected by geographically distributed inverter-based resources to support transient stab…
Sparse Oblique Decision Tree for Power System Security Rules Extraction and Embedding
Qingchun Hou, Ning Zhang, Daniel S. Kirschen +3
Increasing the penetration of variable generation has a substantial effect on the operational reliability of power systems. The higher level of uncertainty that stems from this var…
A Generalized PSS Architecture for Balancing Transient and Small-Signal Response
Ryan T. Elliott, Payman Arabshahi, Daniel S. Kirschen
For decades, power system stabilizers paired with high initial response automatic voltage regulators have served as an effective means of meeting sometimes conflicting system stabi…
Real-Time Prediction of the Duration of Distribution System Outages
Aaron Jaech, Baosen Zhang, Mari Ostendorf +1
This paper addresses the problem of predicting duration of unplanned power outages, using historical outage records to train a series of neural network predictors. The initial dura…
