DCMG exchanges predetermined active and reactive power with the upstream network. DCMG and NGs are coordinately controlled and managed in such a way the exchanged P-Q power with external grid are kept on scheduled level following all events and operating conditions. The proposed control system, in addition to the ability of mutual support between DCMG and NGs, makes NGs support each other in critical situations. On the other hand, in all operating conditions, DCMG not only feeds three-phase loads with time-varying active and reactive power on the grid side but also injects constant active power into the grid. During events, NGs support each other, NGs support DCMG, and DCMG supports NGs. Such control strategies are realized by the proposed control method to increase resilience of the system. For these purposes, all resources and loads in DCMG and NGs are equipped with individual controllers. Then, a central control unit analyzes, monitors, and regularizes performance of individual controllers in DCMG and NGs. Nonlinear simulations show the proposed model can effectively control DCMG and NGs under normal and critical conditions.","PeriodicalId":10729,"journal":{"name":"CSEE Journal of Power and Energy Systems","volume":"10 2","pages":"786-796"},"PeriodicalIF":7.1,"publicationDate":"2023-09-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10246187","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140351449","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Various protection schemes that allow correct operation of microgrids have been proposed for individual systems in different topologies and connections. Nevertheless, protection schemes for networked microgrids are still in development, and further research is required to design and operate advanced protection in interconnected systems. Interconnection of these microgrids in different nodes with various interconnection technologies increases fault occurrence and complicates protection operation. This paper aims to point out challenges in developing protection for networked microgrids, potential solutions, and research areas that need to be addressed for their development. First, this article presents a systematic analysis of different microgrid clusters proposed since 2016, including several architectures of networked microgrids, operation modes, components, and utilization of renewable sources, which have not been widely explored in previous review papers. Second, the paper presents a discussion on protection systems currently available for microgrid clusters, current challenges, and solutions that have been proposed for these systems. Finally, it discusses the trend of protection schemes in networked microgrids and presents some conclusions related to implementation.","PeriodicalId":10729,"journal":{"name":"CSEE Journal of Power and Energy Systems","volume":"10 2","pages":"448-467"},"PeriodicalIF":7.1,"publicationDate":"2023-09-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10246175","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140351555","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In contrast to existing investigations that treated DC-link voltage as an ideal constant voltage, this paper considers the non-ideal dynamic coupling between both subsystems for completeness and higher accuracy, which introduces additional DC-side dynamics to the VSC. The analysis shows parameters of the boost converter's power model that impact stability through the DC-link. Carefully selecting these parameters can mitigate this effect on stability and improve dynamic performance across the DC-link. Hence, an optimization framework is developed to facilitate in selecting adequate boost converter parameters in designing a stable voltage source converter-based microgrid (VSC-MG). The developed optimization framework, based on particle swarm optimization, considers dynamic coupling between both subsystems and is also effective in avoiding inadequate boost converter parameters capable of propagating instability through the DC-link to the VSC.

Such a distributed approach wins in work sharing, enduring a single link failure, effective decision-making, quickest convergence, and autonomy for global power nodes. The method works with all grid types in connected and islanded modes. Minimizing total operation cost and emissions while meeting total demand and system constraints are the most crucial contributions of this paper. Two case studies are applied to explain performance and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm with different packet loss scenarios. Under uncertainty, sensitivity of the system was evaluated. Results show mismatch between generated and consumed power is improved by 100% in the electricity grid, 99.94% in heating grid, and 99.91% in gas grid.

However, wideband oscillation events have seriously threatened stable operation of power systems. By far, existing oscillation mitigation methods are usually designed for specific oscillation cases and are not capable of mitigating wideband oscillations. In order to mitigate various oscillations adaptively, this article proposes an adaptive wideband oscillation mitigation control for MMC-HVDC system connected to offshore wind farms. Analytical wideband impedance models of the wind farm side MMC (WFMMC) and offshore wind farm composed of permanent-magnetic synchronous generator-based wind turbine generators (PMSG-WTGs) are derived, respectively, which are verified by measured impedances from time-domain simulations. Then, a wideband oscillation mechanism is revealed by impedance-frequency characteristics. On this basis, an adaptive wide band oscillation mitigation control is proposed, and its working principle as well as implementation process are elaborated. Case studies of a sub-/super-synchronous oscillation (SSO) event and a high-frequency oscillation (HFO) event of an offshore wind farm with MMC-HVDC system are carried out to verify effectiveness of the proposed adaptive wideband oscillation mitigation control.","PeriodicalId":10729,"journal":{"name":"CSEE Journal of Power and Energy Systems","volume":"11 1","pages":"208-216"},"PeriodicalIF":6.9,"publicationDate":"2023-09-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10246145","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143430344","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, due to the cascode structure, coupling with the parasitics in gate driver and power circuits, power converters based on cascode GaN are prone to overshoot and oscillate on switching waveforms, which may lead to serious EMC problems, or even device breakdown. The complicated structure of cascode GaN device makes the gate driver design comparatively complex. An analytical model of the switching process considering gate driver parameters is proposed in this article. The influence of gate driver parameters on switching behavior is investigated from the perspective of switching speed, waveform overshoot, and power loss.

In the ancillary service market, distribution system operator (DSO) is responsible for safety of the DN by procuring available capacities of aggregators. Unlike existing studies, this paper proposes a novel market mechanism composed of two parts: choice rule and payment rule. The proposed choice rule simultaneously considers social welfare and fairness, encouraging risk-averse aggregators to participate in the ancillary service market. It is then formulated as a linear programming problem, and a distributed solution using the multi-cut Benders decomposition is presented. Moreover, successful implementation of the choice rule depends on each aggregator's truthful adoption of private parameters. Therefore, a payment rule is also designed, which is proved to possess two properties: incentive compatibility and individual rationality.
