The challenges can be met when we introduce a new storage facility which was already available in the existing power system. Existing hydro power plants with larger reservoirs or pumped storage hydro power plants can be used for compensation of this drawback. It is known that wind power is an uncertain energy source compared to hydroelectric generation which is easily scheduled. In this abstract, the method for coordinating wind power plant and hydroelectric power plant is carried out by using Fourier transform technique to measure and control the state of wind and hydro power plants. Hydroelectric generation is employed as a method of energy reserve and compensation for wind power fluctuation in order to provide efficient power supply to benefit wind providers. The Fourier technique, which is generally used for relation of periodic functions like sine and cosine waves, is used here for the purpose of co-ordination.

Abstract With the rapid growth of renewable energy resources, energy efficiency initiatives, electric vehicles, energy storage, etc., distribution systems are becoming more complex such that conventional protection, control, and measurement infrastructure – typically concentrated at the main substation, with little to no access to information along the feeder – cannot maintain the reliability of the system without some sort of additional protection, control and measurement functionalities. As an example, a dedicated communication channel for carrying the transfer trip signal from the substation to the Point of Common Coupling (PCC) to prevent islanding operation of alternative resources, has been a requirement for many utilities.

At present, to better realize real-time situational awareness and control of the distribution network, synchronous phasor measurement technology has been gradually applied to the distribution network, such as the application of micro multifunctional phasor measurement units (µMPMUs). The distribution network phasor data concentrator (DPDC), as a connection node between the µMPMUs and the main station, is also gaining more attraction. This paper first analyzes the communication network structure of DPDCs and µMPMUs and compares and analyzes the differences in the installation locations, functions, communication access methods and communication protocols of the phasor technology devices of the distribution network and the transmission network. It is pointed out that DPDCs not only need the functions of data collection, storage, and forwarding like transmission network PDCs, but also should be able to access more µMPMUs, and can aggregate the phasor data of the same time scale from µMPMUs by different communication methods.

Phasor measurement units (PMUs) are able to provide synchronized and accurate data such as frequency, voltage and current phasors, vibration, and temperature for power systems. Thus, the utilization of PMUs has become quite important in the fast monitoring, protection, and even the control of new and complicated distribution systems. However, data quality and communication are the main concerns for synchrophasor applications. This study presents a comprehensive survey on wide-area monitoring systems (WAMSs), PMUs, data quality, and communication requirements for the main applications of PMUs in a modern and smart distribution system with a variety of energy resources and loads. In addition, the main challenges for PMU applications as well as opportunities for the future use of this intelligent device in distribution systems will be presented in this paper. Keywords: synchrophasor technology; phasor measurement unit (PMU); communication technologies; intelligent electronic device (IED); data quality; PMU applications; wide area monitoring system (WAMS); smart grids; distribution system 1.

  • Construction of a Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU) for Power System Applications
    Construction of a Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU) for Power System Applications By Onisokonikumen Valiant Sampson A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering University of Manitoba Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada Copyright © 2015 by Onisokonikumen Valiant Sampson Abstract The role played by phasor measurement units (PMU) in power grid monitoring systems today showcases the importance and usefulness of this device. There is a significant challenge regarding the design and implementation of PMUs today. This challenge stems from the closed source philosophy employed by commercial PMU vendors who strongly protect their hardware and software designs keeping it away from researchers. This philosophy has motivated a number of researchers to develop their own PMU devices. This thesis presents the design and implementation of a PMU device utilizing off-the- shelf components to estimate power system parameters such as voltage magnitude, phase angle and frequency with key design information extracted from the OpenPMU group and the IEEE C37.118-2011 standard. The functionality of the PMU was tested by performing important power system experiments which compared measured result of voltage magnitude, phase angle and frequency of a balanced three phase signal from a rapid prototyping system with estimated results from PMU. The conducted experiments confirmed that the PMU could estimate voltage magnitude, phase angle and frequency approximately equivalent to the measured quantities of the input signal. i Acknowledgements I would like to express my heart felt gratitude to Prof. Aniruddha Gole, for his immense contribution and guidance throughout this research.
