Assessing the Static Security of the Italian Grid by Means of the N-1 Three-Phase Contingency Analysis
2024
Overview
The ongoing replacement of synchronous machine generators (SMs) with converter-interface generators (CIGs) is raising the voltage unbalance of power systems, affecting power quality and grid stability. This paper focuses on a key power quality index for power systems, i.e., the voltage unbalance factor. The purpose of this work is twofold. First, it presents the generalization of a three-phase power flow algorithm developed by University of Padova, named PFPD_3P, to assess the voltage unbalance factors of power systems supplied by CIGs. In particular, it is demonstrated that CIGs can be modelled as three-phase PV/PQ constraints embedding their positive-, negative- and zero-sequence admittances. Then, the concept of three-phase contingency analysis is introduced. Indeed, for static security evaluation, the classical single-phase contingency analysis may no longer be sufficient, as it lacks power quality computations, e.g., voltage/current unbalance factors. Numerical simulations evaluating the unbalance factors due to different generation mix scenarios and contingencies are tested on the Italian extra-high-voltage/high-voltage (EHV/HV) grid. The choice of this network relies on its representativeness, as CIGs are the majority of new installations in the Italian generation mix.
