Synchronized Data-driven Composite Scheme for Augmenting Power Grid Stability.

This paper proposes a synchrophasor measurement-assisted integrated scheme to enhance power grid stability via transient stability assessment and emergency control of power systems in real-time. The synchrophasor measurements are time-stamped network information available from Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs). The Transient Stability Assessment (TSA) is based on measured generator bus angles obtained directly by PMUs at the control center. These synchronized angle measurements are utilized to construct features, and a Random Forest classifier is implemented to infer the TSA in real-time. The TSA results are determined within the first three cycles following the fault clearance. For operating scenarios that are unstable, an effective emergency control scheme is developed to avoid system degradation. The control strategy utilizes wide-area measurements to formulate a proportional sharing principle-based methodology in real-time. The composite scheme estimates the location and magnitude of the emergency measures to enhance grid stability. The performance of the proposed composite scheme is tested on an IEEE 39-bus test system. The results highlight that the scheme is computationally efficient and robust to topological changes.
