RT Conference Proceedings T1 Voltage and frequency control for future power systems: The ELECTRA IRP proposal A1 D'Hulst, R. A1 Merino Fernandez, J. A1 Rikos, E. A1 Kolodziej, D. A1 Heussen, K. A1 Geibelk, D. A1 Temiz, A. A1 Caerts, C. AB In this paper a high level functional architecture for frequency and voltage control for the future (2030+) power system is presented. The proposal suggests a decomposition of the present organization of power system operation into a 'web of cells'. Each cell in this web is managed by a single system operator who assumes responsibility for real-time balance and voltage control of the cell, minimizing the dependency on inter-cell communication for secure system operation. The web-of-cells architecture ensures overall system stability by a combination of decentralized and distributed control patterns for frequency and voltage control. In each control cell, the operator maintains an accurate view on the overall cell state, based on adequate monitoring capabilities, and ensures secure operation by allocating and dispatching reserves located in the cell. Intercell coordination provides for efficient system-wide management and economic optimization. PB Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
