  • Zonal Resource Adequacy for Voltage Control

    Creator:
    Boller, Michael D.
    Abstract:
    In a power system, operators maintain voltage stability through adequate reactive reserves. Maintaining and accessing an efficient allocation of reactive reserves is prohibitively complex because of reactive line losses, the variety of reactive resources, and either limited or variable reactive outputs from renewable sources. By clustering the system into smaller...

    VSMMi = Vi(0)−min[Vi(l)] Vi(0)− Vi,min (2.1) where: · VSMMi is the VSMM for bus i, · Vi(0) is the

  • Power system reliability and power quality assessments with grid-connected wave energy converters

    Creator:
    Boller, Michael D.
    Abstract:
    Generating abundant, renewable energy from Earth’s oceans is an attractive option for meeting increasing energy demand. Marine renewable energy also comes with the variability of renewable sources, which impact the reliability and power quality of the electrical grid. On a transmission-level, this dissertation looks at ensuring reliability of the power...

  • Rapid Grid State Estimation using Singular Value Decomposition

    Creator:
    Kulkarni, Janhavi
    Abstract:
    Synchrophasor technology has gained great momentum with the widely adopted concept of smart grids in power systems at transmission and generation level. This has led to an improved state estimation of a power system with the advent of Phasor Measurement Units (PMU). PMUs contribute in providing real-time information about the...
