Second, a multiobjective optimization configuration model of the CHP system is established, taking the system’s comprehensive satisfaction, economic cost, and wind power consumption capacity as the objectives, the unit output, and the capacity parameters of the additional heat source as the decision variables. Furthermore, an improved memetic algorithm (IMA) combined with a hierarchical sequence method is designed to solve the optimization model characterized by multiple objectives, hierarchical levels, and nonlinearity. The hierarchical sequence method solves problems sequentially based on the importance of optimization goals, ensuring the satisfaction of the configuration scheme. The IMA employs adaptive crossover and mutation probabilities, enhancing the algorithm’s convergence and quality. Finally, case analysis demonstrates that the CHP system achieves the best benefits when heat storage tanks and electric boilers are configured simultaneously.

The newly developed GFM framework, i.e., DVSC, is adopted in both WT and ESS, which utilizes DC voltage dynamics for synchronization purposes. In this paper, the GC mode and SA mode are transferred by changing the status of the series-connected switch, and it is necessary to meet the grid connection conditions when the system is transferred to the GC mode, namely, voltage, frequency, and phase sequence. For the GC mode, the inertia response from WT can be realized using the reserved energy of the DC capacitor, while the ESS serves to eliminate the steady-state frequency deviation and reduce the DC voltage fluctuation of WT using the designed secondary frequency regulation scheme. For the SA mode, the proposed strategy can keep the power balance without external power sources. The small-signal model of the WT and ESS hybrid system is derived. The stability analysis in both GC and SA modes is fully conducted utilizing the modal analysis method, where the impacts of control parameters on stability are assessed.

The government prioritizes integrating large-scale renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar power, to reduce dependence on conventional power plants. However, the intermittency of renewables leads to forecasting errors, requiring extra power reserves from conventional units, thereby escalating operational costs and CO<sub>2</sub> emissions. The country currently utilizes a manual mechanism for power balancing operations, overlooking critical grid constraints of the transmission line loadings. In such conditions, injecting large-scale power from renewables can lead to significant fluctuations in line power flows, risking transmission line loadings and compromising the system’s secure operation. Hence, this paper has developed an automatic generation control (AGC) model for the highly wind-integrated power system to alleviate line congestions in the network and enhance the economic operation of the system. The study utilizes the Pakistan power system as a case study to simulate the proposed model. The developed real-time power dispatch strategy for the AGC system considers the constraints of the transmission line to avoid congestion. It integrates wind energy as operating reserves to enhance the economic operation of the system. When managing line congestion, it identifies overloaded bus lines and adjusts power regulation accordingly while compensating for shortfalls by augmenting transmitted power from regional grid stations. However, it maintains a constant dispatch ratio without line overloads, aligned with generation capacities. Additionally, the strategy integrates reserve power from the wind power plant and traditional generating units to further improve economic operations. Simulations have been conducted using PowerFactory software, employing the eight-bus and five-machine models to replicate the characteristics of the Pakistan power system. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed AGC design in mitigating transmission line congestion of power systems that are heavily integrated with wind energy sources while simultaneously ensuring the economic operation of generating units.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":51293,"journal":{"name":"International Transactions on Electrical Energy Systems","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/2024/6893428","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141424860","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
