Abstract | Wide Area Measurement System (WAMS) can extend and effectively improve the FACTS-Based stabilizers capability in damping the inter-area low frequency oscillations in interconnected bulk power systems. This paper discusses the design and implementation aspects of a Wide Area Damping Controller (WADC) to Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor (TCSC) based supplementary stabilizers. Modal analysis is performed to identify the modes of oscillations and the optimal combination of input signals of FACTS-based WADC through controllability analysis. The paper presents the impact of upgrading the existing fixed series capacitor (FSC) installed between a weak interconnection of Saudi Arabia power network to TCSC. Differential Evolution (DE) algorithm is applied to search for optimal controller parameters. The eigenvalue analysis and non-linear time domain simulations indicate that TCSC-based WADC can effectively damp the inter-area oscillations and improve the system stability irrespective of the severity and the location of the disturbances. |
