GridDyn is coupled to the open-source network simulator, ns-3, through FSKIT. FSKIT provides time control for advancing the state of federated simulators, and facilitates communication among objects in the federate. A wide-area communication-based electric transmission protection scheme is simulated with FSKIT, using the IEEE 39- bus test system. A communication network for the 39-bus system is built in ns-3, and basic protection relay logic is added to the power system model in order to perform the co-simulation.","PeriodicalId":212582,"journal":{"name":"2015 Workshop on Modeling and Simulation of Cyber-Physical Energy Systems (MSCPES)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116639371","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}

The mechanism monitors, detects, and responds to load altering attacks. The authors examined security requirements of Smart Grid stakeholders and constructed a set of load control policies enforced by the mechanism.

We employ hierarchical spectral clustering and k-mean spectral clustering techniques to design control areas with high physical coupling within the power system. We address three distributed control scenarios: (i) distributed control applied to all generators of a control area, (ii) distributed control applied only to the largest inertia generator within a control area, and (iii) hierarchical distributed control where all generators apply distributed control and lead generators within a control area have centralized control. We investigate the effect of area clustering outcomes and compare the performance of the three control approaches for various power system faults.","PeriodicalId":212582,"journal":{"name":"2015 Workshop on Modeling and Simulation of Cyber-Physical Energy Systems (MSCPES)","volume":"86 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133498534","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}

Time of Use (ToU) and Real Time Pricing (RTP) pricing schemes have been used by power system operators to incentivize cus- tomers to reduce their peak energy demands during peak hours. However, ToU only provides a weak incentive for customers and does not promote adoption at scale. Similarly, day-ahead Real- Time Pricing (RTP) scheme might create peaks in previoulsy off-peak periods and causes some ping-pong effect in next day prices. In this paper, we introduce a new incentive-driven scheme called Minimax which encourages customers to flatten their daily load profiles such that they can reduce their electricity bill and help lowering the aggregate peak power demands. Using two real life energy usage datasets, we show via simulations how the peak energy usage and load factor vary with different choices of parameter values we select for the Minimax scheme. In addition, we present our optimal scheduling policy which yields the minimum energy bill assuming a certain percentage of load demands is schedulable. Our results using energy usage data of 100 homes from the UMASS dataset show that customers can save 13-17% of their electricity bills if the Minimax scheme is used but only about 2-3% if RTP or TOU scheme is used. Furthermore, the power system operators see a 10% reduction in peak power demand if appropriate parameter values are used for the Minimax scheme while the peak demands increase by more than 70% using RTP or TOU schemes.","PeriodicalId":212582,"journal":{"name":"2015 Workshop on Modeling and Simulation of Cyber-Physical Energy Systems (MSCPES)","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124043933","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}

Tools and solutions based on co-simulation concepts for such cyber-physical energy systems (CPES) have been developed in recent years. This paper focuses on the need for real-time hardware integration into CPES simulation, identified from recently conducted research projects. From those projects - presented as use cases - relevant actors are identified and their interaction and data exchange is discussed. Resulting requirements are presented for the CPES simulation and the hardware to be integrated. The handling of heterogeneous laboratory hardware is discussed and a simplification in the form of a hardware abstraction layer is proposed.","PeriodicalId":212582,"journal":{"name":"2015 Workshop on Modeling and Simulation of Cyber-Physical Energy Systems (MSCPES)","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124522504","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}
