Korea has the characteristics of traditional power system such as large-scale power generation and large-scale power transmission systems, including 20 GW large-scale power generation complexes in several regions with unit generator capacity exceeding 1.4 GW, 2-3 ultra-high-voltage transmission lines that transport power from large-scale power generation complexes, and 6 ultra-high-voltage transmission lines that transport power from non-metropolitan areas to the metropolitan area. Due to the characteristics of the power system, the penetration level for renewable energy is low, but due to frequency stability issue, some generators are reducing the output of generators. In the future, the issue of maintaining the stability of the power system is expected to emerge as the most important issue in accordance with the policy of expanding renewable energy. When non-inertial inverter-based renewable energy, such as solar and wind power, surges rapidly, the means to improve the power system stability in an independent system is to install a natural inertial resource synchronous condenser (SC) and a virtual inertial resource BESS in the system. In this study, we analyzed the effect of renewable energy on power system stability and the BESS effect to maintain the minimum frequency through a power system simulation. It was confirmed that the BESS effect according to the power generation constraint capacity reached a maximum of 122.81 %.

Conventional pwm switching power supply have the disadvantage some aspects of size, light weight, noise and system stability. High frequency Series Resonant Converter (SRC), described in this paper, almost improve above disadvantages. We use the state plane technique as analysis method. This technique is powerful tool which can clearly analyze the peak stress of the state variables inside the converter, Here, we can define each operation mode from frequency ratio Fsn, switching frequency to resonant frequency, and we analyze the output performance in each operation mode. To verify the theoretical analysis, we compose the actual converter, and the experimental results are compared with analysis.

Recently over dropped frequencies of power system were recorded when power system was unbalanced between generation and demand. Therefore load following characteristic analysis of thermal and combined cycle power plant generators is necessary for low frequency condition analysis of power system. Frequency simulator supplies simulated frequency to the online generator for prescribed goal. This simulator needs to minimize effects to power system and requires stability first. This paper introduces design and manufacturing case of frequency simulator for load following characteristic analysis of generators.

The introduction of renewable energy sources into the AC grid can change and weaken the strength of the grid, which will in turn affect the stability and robustness of the doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) wind farm. When integrated with weak grids, the DFIG wind turbine with vector power control often suffers from poor performance and robustness, while the DFIG wind turbine with synchronized control provides better stability. This paper investigates the critical short circuit ratios of DFIG wind turbine with vector power control and synchronized control, to analyze the stability boundary of the DFIG wind turbine. Frequency domain methods based on sensitivity and complementary sensitivity of transfer matrix are used to investigate the stability boundary conditions. The critical capacity of DFIG wind farm with conventional vector power control at a certain point of common coupling (PCC) is obtained and is further increased by employing synchronized control properly. The stability boundary is validated by electromagnetic transient simulation of an offshore wind farm connected to a real regional grid.

This paper presents an alternative frequency adaptive grid synchronization technique named HDN-FLL, which can accurately extract the fundamental positive- and negative-sequence components and interested harmonics in adverse three-phase grid voltage. The HDN-FLL is based on the harmonic decoupling network (HDN) consisting of multiple first order complex vector filters (FOCVF) with a frequency-locked loop (FLL), which makes the system frequency adaptive. The stability of the proposed FLL is strictly verified to be global asymptotically stable. In addition, the linearization and parameters tuning of the FLL is also discussed. The structure of the HDN has been widely used as a prefilter in grid synchronization techniques. However, the stability of the general HDN is seldom discussed. In this paper, the transfer function expression of the general HDN is deduced and its stability is verified by the root locus method. To show the advantages of the HDN-FLL, a simulation comparison with other gird synchronization methods is carried out. Experimental results verify the excellent performance of the proposed synchronization method.

This paper analyzes an eigenvalue distribution and enhancement of the small signal stabiligy when an Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) modeling is connected into the multi-machine power system. Recently a lot of attention has been paid to the subject of dynamic stability. It deals with analysis of eigenvalue sensitivities with respect to parameters of UPFC Controller and damping of interarea and local electromechanical oscillation modes using UPFC Controller. It provides an insight and understanding in the basic characteristics of damping effects of UPFC Controller and shows a very stable frequency response via UPFC in test model. The series branch of the UPFC is designed to damp the power oscillation during transients, while the shunt branch aims at maintaining the bus voltage and angle. Comprehensive time-domain simulation studies using PSS/E show that the proposed robost UPFC controller can enhance the small signal stability efficiently in spite of the variations of power system operating conditions.

This paper presents a novel approach based on Prony method to analysis of small signal stability in power system. Prony method is a valuable tool in identifying transfer function and estimating the modal parameter of power system oscillation from measured or computed discrete time signal. This paper define the relative residue of time signal and propose the condition to select low frequency oscillation in each generator. This paper describes the application results of proposed algorithm with respect to KEPCO systems. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can be used as another tools of power systems analysis.

The standard for the frequency protection of distributed generation in Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO)'s standard doesn't include the setting of frequency protection. Therefore, this paper analyzes the correlation between the frequency protection requirements and the stability of grid-connected PV system for the adjustable operating setting of frequency protection. The distribution system interconnected with 3 MW PV system is modeled by Matlab/Simulink. The various value of frequency is simulated. For studied cases, the stability of PV system is analyzed. It is concluded that the operating setting of frequency protection can be determined by the stability of PV system.

The frequency is an important operation parameter for the control, protection, and stability of a power system. The frequency as a key index of power quality can be indicative of system abnormal conditions and disturbances. Due to the sudden change in generation and loads or faults in power system, the frequency is supposed to deviate from its nominal value. It is essential that the frequency must be maintained very close to its nominal frequency. An accurate monitoring of the power frequency is essential to optimal operation and prevention for wide area blackout. As most conventional frequency estimation schemes are based on DFT filter, it has been pointed out that the gain error could cause defects when the frequency is deviated from nominal value. This paper presents an advanced frequency estimation technique using gain compensation to improve the performance of DFT filter based techniques. To evaluate performance of the proposed algorithm, the 765kV T/L system in Korea is simulated by EMTP-RV software. The proposed technique can reduce the gain error caused when the power system frequency deviates from nominal value.
