Overview • Benefits of RATC • Applications • Real-time corrective • Hour ahead corrective and preventive • Day ahead corrective • Day ahead market/economic based • RATC algorithms
Benefits of RATC • Market models (day-ahead, hour-ahead) do not guarantee N-1 feasibility • RATC reduces contingency violations • RATC reduces costly out of market corrections Market Model Out of Market Corrections Contingency Analysis
Benefits of RATC with Renewables • Renewable resources • Renewables impose locational reserve requirements • RATC improves reserve deliverability, reduces need for investment in local generation • RATC minimizes costly re-dispatch caused by renewables • Enables higher percentage levels of renewables
Expected RATC Benefits • Cost savings: >2-5% avoided costs • System reliability • N-1, N-m, malicious attacks can be mitigated using real-time RATC • Reduction in load shedding: >5-10%
Real-time Structure • Computational time: < 5 min.
Real-time Corrective Topology Control Examples • PJM (2010) Manual 3: Transmission Operations. http://www.pjm.com/markets-and-operations/compliance/nerc-standards/~/media/documents/manuals/m03.ashx • Sunnyside-Torrey 138 kV Operating Guide (AEP Operating Memo T029) • Historically, the Sunnyside-Torrey 138 kV overloads on the outage of the South Canton – Torrey 138 kV line. Opening the S.E. Canton 138 kV CB at Sunnyside will help to reduce the post-contingency flow on the Sunnyside-Torrey 138 kV line. • Page 107
Superstorm Sandy • PJM lost 82 bulk electric facilities • 6 500kV transmission assets ; 3 345kV transmission assets ; 39 230kV transmission assets ; 25 138kV transmission assets • Caused extremely high voltage on the system during low load levels • “We were dealing with extremely high voltage on the system but a switching plan was developed to help alleviate these conditions.” • Via Andy Ott, VP of PJM: several 500kV lines were switched out to mitigate over voltage concerns during these low load level periods
Hour Ahead Corrective Structure • Computational time: < 15 min.
Hour Ahead Corrective Results IEEE 118-bus Test Case Wind uncertainty: ±16% Reserve: 5% non-wind + 10% wind or largest contingency • Results to date from IEEE 118: • RATC produces multiple candidate switching actions for single events/contingencies • Candidate switching actions solve multiple events • Market solution (without RATC) failed N-1 contingency analysis with forecasted wind level • Market solution with RATC is N-1 reliable and robust against renewable uncertainty
Hour Ahead Preventive Structure • Computational time: < 15 min.
Day Ahead Corrective Structure • Computational time: 2-3 hrs.
Hour Ahead Corrective Results IEEE 118-bus Test Case Demand uncertainty: ±6% Reserve: 5% hydro + 7% non-hydro or largest contingency • Results to date from IEEE 118: • RATC produces multiple candidate switching actions for single events/contingencies • Candidate switching actions solve multiple events • Market solution (without RATC) failed N-1 contingency analysis with forecasted demand • Market solution with RATC is N-1 reliable and robust against demand uncertainty
Day Ahead Market Based Structure • Computational time: 2-3 hrs.
Topology Control Algorithms • Greedy algorithm • Based on a sensitivity analysis • Fast, scalable algorithm for large-scale systems • Medium to short-term RATC applications • MIP heuristic • Finds the best single switching action • Long to medium-term RATC applications
