In order to use this technology to its full extent, such condition should not represent a limiting constraint in terms of performance and stability. However, linear controllers as the proportional-integral-derivative (PID) generally require the linearization of the system around a point to perform their tuning and do not necessarily guarantee correct operation over the wide range required by ESSs. In order to address this issue, this paper presents a study to select a consistent OP when tuning the PIDs for the active power control loop in an ESS. Two scenarios of simulated OPs were obtained from an optimal power flow (OPF) (critical setpoint shifts, and centroids of clusters for representative cases), with a third one to evaluate saturation. A genetic algorithm (GA) was used at each point to minimize reference tracking error and to ensure operating constraints. The simulation results were confirmed through a mathematical analysis which indicates that since the system’s behavior depends heavily on the OP, tunings based on saturation points are the most consistent choice.","PeriodicalId":267301,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE PES Transmission & Distribution Conference and Exhibition - Latin America (T&D-LA)","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124514954","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 power system typically has been hydro based with no presence of large-scale wind or photovoltaic generation. Around 1249 MW of wind and 1086 MW of photovoltaic large scale generation are expected which represents 10% of the peak demand. For this reason, the Colombian power system operator must evaluate the impact of integrating these technologies into the grid. In order to achieve this goal, the behavior of these unconventional renewable generators was simulated using the WECC (Western Electricity Coordinating Council) control model for Type 4 Wind Generators which was implemented in the PowerFactory software. This paper shows the results of several tests carried out to validate the referred model and the analysis performed with it to assess the impact of these sources in the Colombian power system’s frequency and voltage. Using these results the technical requirements were defined to maintain the security and reliability conditions of the power system.","PeriodicalId":267301,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE PES Transmission & Distribution Conference and Exhibition - Latin America (T&D-LA)","volume":"64 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126250788","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}
