As an important part of load forecasting, annual electricity consumption forecasting plays an important role for all the market participants, especially for the decision-makers establishing bidding strategies of generation companies and the planners of market investors. In this paper, factor selection on the inputs of electricity consumption forecasting is first performed to find proper features from the data in terms of their statistical information. After that, the regression LS-SVM is generalized for the forecasting modeling in this work that is built using the data after factor analysis. In this way, electricity consumption forecasting is accomplished, which not only overcomes the over-fitting of traditional forecasting methods, but also quickens the computation velocity of standard SVM by converting the quadratic optimization problem into the computation of the linear equations. In the end, the case studies are carried out to test the proposed model, which indicates that the built model is an accurate and quick method to predict the electricity consumption.","PeriodicalId":240420,"journal":{"name":"2008 Third International Conference on Electric Utility Deregulation and Restructuring and Power Technologies","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-04-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124343474","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}

In order to study the optimal capacity scheme of wind power in the system, based on Buerjin real power grid topology, its simplified mathematical model was built by the methods of eliminating partial nodes of the whole power network and of removing power loss and merging into power load. The mathematical model of seven order differential equation for wind power generator considering variable wind speed is given in this paper, the emulation models for the synchronous wind generator with excitation system and frequency-modulation system and the asynchronous wind generator accompanying wind speed variation are built as well. The dynamic stability of wind-hydraulic power mutual compensation system were simulated and analyzed in these cases: wind generators cut-in one by one, wind generators cut-in simultaneously, wind generators cut-in when wind speed leaps. The simulation result is indicated as follow: the power system will be dynamic stable when generators cut-in one by one; the power system dynamic stability will be influenced a little when wind speed leaps from 10 m/s to 20 m/s; the power system frequency will fluctuate between 49 Hz to 52 Hz when seven generators cut-in simultaneously, finally all the generators will be cut off by its control system thus wind power cut-in will be failed. Furthermore, the simulation result also shown that the power system frequency could not be ignored when large-scale wind generators are switched into power grid, frequency should be paid more attention to do research on power system stability. The simulation result also fit the real measurement very well, which verify the correctness of the emulation model. The optimized mathematical model based on genetic algorithm was built in the paper, and the fitness function with punish item was created, so the genetic algorithm was utilized to calculate optimal wind power capacity, the calculation result demonstrated that when the wind penetration capacity exceed 15.25 percent of its rated wind capacity, which reaching its maximum limit, the stability of alone wind-hydraulic mutual compensation system would be destroyed, the conclusion also match its simulation result, which verify the rationality of mathematical model and the feasibility of genetic algorithm application on the calculation of the wind penetration power. In addition, the simulation result also show that the wind generators need to install VAr compensation capacitor with certain of capacity, and the simulation model need to be further improved.","PeriodicalId":240420,"journal":{"name":"2008 Third International Conference on Electric Utility Deregulation and Restructuring and Power Technologies","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-04-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127763672","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}

So in case of utility faults or intentional islanding, DR has to change its control strategy from controlled current source to controlled voltage source. This paper analyzes the transition between controlled current source and controlled voltage source on single-phase inverter and three-phase inverter, respectively, and then presents a novel control strategy based on controlled voltage mode whether connected to the grid or in stand-alone. Once the grid failure, this control strategy regulates the inverter output voltage amplitude quickly, which forces the grid currents through the SCR switches to decrease to zero at much less time and during this SCRs turn-off period, the voltage fluctuates within permissible levels. After disconnection from the grid, the inverter will recover its voltage amplitude to a rated level. The algorithm is discussed in this paper detailedly.
