Optimum load shedding for avoiding steady-state voltage instability

Abstract:Undervoltage load shedding (UVLS) is an effective measure for restoring voltage stability as a last resort in emergency conditions. In this paper, a UVLS scheme is proposed considering the uncertainties of load and line parameters. The loading margin is considered as the voltage stability index. The proposed scheme determines the optimal load shedding pattern subject to technical constraints. The info-gap decision theory uncertainty modeling technique is utilized to find a robust and cost-effective pattern of load shedding. The proposed scheme is formulated as a nonlinear programming problem, which is solved using the sequential quadratic programming technique. The performance of the proposed scheme is verified for the IEEE-14 bus and IEEE-118 bus test systems.

“…Tuan et al [7] presented a viable load shedding algorithm which determines the load to be shed based on sensitivity of indicator with respect to load. El-Sadek et al [8] developed a methodology for optimum load shedding using L-indicator under emergency to avoid voltage instability problem. Successive load flow runs are required to accomplish proposed technique.…”

“…T here exist many types of emergency controls, such as generator tripping, load shedding, capacitors/ reactors switching, steam turbine fast-regulation valve, generator transient excitation boosting, etc. Among them, emergency secondaryvoltage control [4,5] and load shedding [6,7] are two important means to prevent voltage collapse. T here are papers reporting on how to implement these two controls individually; however, it is a big issue to best coordinate them e OE ectively and economically.…”
