Abstract

This paper presents a methodology for the design of over-frequency containment schemes in low inertia, high renewable systems. This methodology is demonstrated through the comprehensive redesign of the containment scheme for significant over-frequency events (e.g., the loss of an exporting HVDC interconnector) in the Ireland and Northern Ireland power system (All-Island System). The new scheme allows an existing synchronous generator runback system integrity protection scheme to be replaced with fixed wind tripping and dynamic response from wind. This exploits the capabilities of renewable generation to create effective protection and control resources. The methodology provides the steps required to determine the key parameters of the scheme (e.g., maximum allowable frequency, required volume of tripping, lowest trip frequency). A key consideration of the methodology is the volume of dynamic response from wind that can be deployed before frequency limits are violated (e.g., inertia and wind penetration). Dynamic simulations are performed in DSE Tools for the All-Island system considering a 2020 operational scenario. These simulations support the application of the methodology and demonstrate the effectiveness of the scheme designed for the All-Island system. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
