Due to the high cost of power outage, appropriate planning, scheduling and preventive strategies should be considered to improve the resiliency of the power system. The optimal resource allocation in an area with high risk of extreme events occurrence is quite challenging. In this paper, a novel method is presented to improve the grid resiliency, from electrical point of view, in case of an extreme event with an emphasis on grid preparation. A multi-objective planning & control strategy is proposed at the pre-event stage. The proposed approach includes microgrid islanding, generation regulation, and load curtailment. Energy Storage Systems are considered as alternative resources in case of occurrence of extreme events. The effectiveness of the proposed method is assessed and compared to the equivalent conventional control scheme using a test case composed by the IEEE 13-bus distribution test feeders suitably adapted to include stochastic generation and energy storage systems. It is shown that our proposed strategy is able to cover the critical loads in all the 24-hour simulation study.","PeriodicalId":175719,"journal":{"name":"2019 North American Power Symposium (NAPS)","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124418633","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This issue has increased in importance and complexity with the proliferation of volatile resources that introduce variability, uncertainty, and intermittency in network behavior, observed as variations in voltage and current phasors. This paper proposes using a quotient gradient system (QGS) to train a two-stage partially recurrent neural network to improve event classification rate in power distribution networks using high-fidelity data from micro-phasor measurement units (µPMUs). QGS is a systematic approach to finding solutions of constraint satisfaction problems. We transform the µPMUs data from the power network into a constraint satisfaction problem and use QGS to train a neural network by solving the resulting optimization problem. Simulation results show that the proposed supervised classification method can reliably distinguish between different events in power distribution networks. Comparison with other neural network classifiers shows that QGS trained networks provide significantly better classification. Sensitivity analysis is performed concerning the number of µPMUs, reporting rates, noise level and early versus late data stream fusion frameworks.","PeriodicalId":175719,"journal":{"name":"2019 North American Power Symposium (NAPS)","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115766206","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A buyer or seller at the microgrid level can complete the transaction matching in the PILT-DAO market. In order to implement this energy trading platform, the first step is to simulate a modified distributed IEEE 13 node test feeders system. The next step is to develop a price mechanism based on a consensus + innovation distributed algorithm to calculate the Distribution Locational Marginal Price (DLMP). In the meantime, smart meters record the Power Flow (PF) data of each DG as one node of the whole simulated distribution power system and send them to blockchain including distributed price and power generation data. The third step is to constitute a decentralized autonomous market by programming smart contracts in Ethereum DAO, running in an artificial system parallelly.

While the grid is becoming more intelligent with emerging sensing and communication techniques, new vulnerabilities are introduced and cyber security becomes a major concern. One type of cyber-attacks - False Data Injection Attacks (FDIAs) - exploits the limitations in traditional power system state estimation, and modifies system states without being detected. In this paper, we propose a physics-guided deep learning (PGDL) approach to defend against FDIAs. The PGDL takes real-time measurements as inputs to neural networks, outputs the estimated states, and reconstructs measurements considering power system physics. A deep recurrent neural network - Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) - is employed to learn the temporal correlations among states. This hybrid learning model leads to a time-series state estimation method to defend against FDIAs. The simulation results using IEEE 14-bus test system demonstrate the accuracy and robustness of the proposed time-series state estimation under FDIAs.","PeriodicalId":175719,"journal":{"name":"2019 North American Power Symposium (NAPS)","volume":"87 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127014393","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the complexity of the analytical switching function limits the flexibility of utilizing the model in different situation and there is room for improvement on accuracy. This paper derives a more accurate expression for current switching function and a more extensive expression for voltage switching function for LCC modeling.

Moreover, limited work has been done to help users choose the optimal usage plan. In this paper, we evaluate several deep learning models for load forecasting.
