Abstract
- The utilization of voltage-source converter-based multi-terminal HVDC (VSC-MTDC) technology has been envisaged as a cost-effective solution to transmit bulk renewables from multiple sending ends to receiving-end AC systems. However, with complex configurations and various types of components, the reliability evaluation of a VSC-MTDC system is more complicated than that of a conventional HVDC system. In addition, due to stochastic failures and complex operating modes, the application of a VSC-MTDC system can have a significant influence on the reliability of hybrid AC/DC power systems. This paper presents a new technique for evaluating the nodal reliability of a hybrid AC/DC power system based on the VSC-MTDC system. The proposed technique is incorporated within a multi-state model for the VSC-MTDC system. Then, an optimization model for contingency management of a hybrid AC/DC power system is formulated. The model is established based on the optimal power flow technique for a VSC-MTDC based hybrid AC/DC power system. The objective of the model is to minimize the total system cost when determining the load curtailment and generation re-dispatch results for each contingency state. Nodal reliability indices for hybrid AC/DC power systems are proposed to evaluate the reliability performance of customers at each node. The effectiveness of the proposed methods is validated using a modified IEEE reliability test system. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
