The industrial foundation of Tibet autonomous region is less developed, its load level is rather low, the power grid structure is relatively weak, and the power source mainly includes hydropower and photovoltaic, the peak regulating capacity is very limited. Therefore, its PV hosting capacity is inadequate and solar light discard rate is somewhat high (more than 30 percent often). How to improve the PV hosting capacity of Tibet power grid is an urgent problem. The main characteristics of Tibet power grid include: large capacity generator within small power system, strong DC coexists with weak AC, grid structure is rather weak. Most of the power sources in Tibet are hydropower. The proportion of PV installed is large, and the proportion of thermal power is very small and only used for peak load regulation, and they are cold standby generators. The daily peak load in Tibet appears at night, and the yearly maximum load is in winter. Therefore, Tibet power grid needs a lot of incoming power in winter while the solar light discard rate is rather high in summer. In normal operation mode, the PV outputs are limited seriously, but the capability of PV power generation to participate in frequency adjustment, to support the transient stability and voltage stability of the power grid has not been developed. According to the characteristics of Tibet power grid, three measures to improve the PV hosting capacity of Tibet power grid are studied, includes:1)Improving the active power control of the PV power station.2)Realizing globally reactive power optimized coordination control by coordinated control of reactive power compensation equipment.3)Improving the generator-grid coordination performance by changing the related parameter settings. Related control models are built, the simulation calculations results show that the above three kinds of measures can effectively improve the PV hosting capacity of Tibet power grid, the three measures have their application value respectively and can be used in combination.","PeriodicalId":260947,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Power System Technology (POWERCON)","volume":"73 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122799328","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 market members participating in the direct power transaction between provinces have great differences in geographies, and the transmission loss caused by differences should not be neglected. When dealing with the direct power transaction between provinces, we do not consider the impact of transmission loss, which greatly brings on unfair trading in the market. This paper builds a direct power transaction model between provinces considering the safety constraints and transmission loss. Considering the multiple operation modes of power grid, the model puts forward the measurement method of transmission loss and studies the ordering rule of direct power transaction between provinces. The rule considers the impact of transmission loss under the premise of giving priority to prices and giving priority to energy conservation and environmental protection. The model promotes the refinement of trading methods and maintains the fairness of transactions in power market. The result is relatively stable and can be used as empirical data for practical application. The model provides decision support for the interaction between supply and demand in the power market and the optimal allocation of resources in large area.","PeriodicalId":260947,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Power System Technology (POWERCON)","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121928834","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 obtain acceptable selectivity in case of faults on these closed-ring structures, an additional protection relay in the coupling point (“coupling relay is beneficial. If the coupling relay (CR) is a conventional overcurrent or distance relay, it suffers from shortcomings like a highly reduced reach towards the substation caused by the necessity to discriminate low fault currents against high currents in non-faulty operation states. Furthermore, DER fault current contributions may lead to sympathetic tripping of the CR in case of faults on adjacent feeders. The proposed CR approach overcomes those challenges by using a negative-sequence reactance criterion. The method’s reactance results are not disturbed by phenomena like fault resistance or variable DER infeed. There is no risk of sympathetic tripping and the CR can be properly coordinated with other protection relays on spur feeders of the ring. This is achieved without communication channels between the CR and other relays or DERs. The approach is validated by simulations of a typical German 20-kV-distribution grid using PSS® Sincal.","PeriodicalId":260947,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Power System Technology (POWERCON)","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117034363","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}
