Abstract

The islanded mode of operation of an electric power system (EPS) that has generation capabilities provided by conventional thermal power plants, by a pumped-storage power station, or from an interlink with a neighboring electric power system through an HVDC BtB converter is addressed in this paper. The risk for electrical power systems to fall into an islanded mode has recently grown, as it is caused not just by technical reasons but by a geopolitical situation as well. The current strains demand the close consideration of problems related to EPS operation in an islanded mode. This paper considers several. The research covers the following issues. The response of the islanded system to a sudden and spasmodic load change is analyzed in cases when the system deals with the disturbance with internal resources alone and with the help of an HVDC BtB converter’s frequency control functionality. Analysis of the impact of the settings of the HVDC BtB converter on the system’s response to disturbances is presented and the optimal set of parameters found. The impact of the system’s extended inertia on the system’s response is evaluated by using an additional unit of the pumped-storage power station in synchronous condenser mode. Transients in the system when switching a unit operating in synchronous condenser mode on and off are analyzed. The capability of the system to withstand major disturbances, such as disconnection of the pumped-storage power station’s unit operating in a pump mode and disconnection of the HVDC BtB converter in emergency modes, if a situation demands, is researched. The research is carried out by numerical simulations using PSS Sincal Electricity Basic software. Updated operating parameters of the isolated power system and the LCC HVDC BtB converter, as well as frequency control automation provided by ABB, were used in the simulations.
