Theme 2: Project 4:Integration Design Guidelines and Performance Metrics - Study Cases Project Leader: Ani Gole University of Manitoba
Outline of Work • Research Commenced May 1, 2010 • Research Personnel (to date): • Dr. Tomas Yebra Vega (Post-Doctoral Fellow) • Mr. Mayassam Amiri (M.Sc. Scholar) • Research Projects/Activities: • Modelling of Distributed Loads in a Microgrid on EMT programs • Incorporation of electric/hybrid Vehicle charging (statistical aspect) • Modelling of Stability Issues in Microgrid resulting from distributed generation/loads • Towards Development of microgrid benchmarks models
Modelling of Distributed Loads in a Microgrid on EMT Programs (I) • Objectives of the activity: • New stochastic model of electric vehicle. • New algorithm for charger that has a lower impact in the distribution network. Battery model
Modelling of Distributed Loads in a Microgrid on EMT Programs (II) • Objectives of the activity: • New index (indices) for evaluating the impact of electric vehicle in the network, penalizing overloading of feeders and poor power quality. • Impact of different charging regimes - grid to car only or bidirectional - car to grid and grid to car • Proposed Impact of this modelling: • operation of microgrid to improve its performance (collaboration with Theme 1). • Development of protection system to reduce the number failures in power devices and loads. Generation of stochastic values (collaboration with Themes 1 and 3).
Modelling of Stability Issues in Microgrids • Objectives of the activity. • New stochastic models of DGs for transient stability studies. • New stochastic models of distribution networks for transient stability studies. • New indices for evaluation and comparison of transient stability studies.
Modelling of Stability Issues in Microgrids (I) • Objectives of the activity. • Study of Optimum penetration level of DGs for transient stability. • Analyses of transient stability in AC and DC distribution systems. Part of canvas of IEEE 13 Node distribution network test feeder in PSCAD
Future Work • Work with Theme 1 an 3 to develop integrated models of communication layer overlay on top of microgrid power systems model • Develop integration guidelines and performance metrics
