Voltage stability based on the implementation of a coordinate secondary voltage control system

Due to demand increasing, most of power networks operate close to their stability limits. The high demand and the reduction of non-renewable energy sources impose the insertion of renewable energy sources. Their non-supervised insertion can cause voltage instability. In order to avoid this instability, a coordinated secondary voltage control system (CSVC) should be implemented. This paper describes the proposed procedure of CSVC system implementation. It is composed by three steps. The first step is the power network partitioning based on Self Organizing Map algorithm, the second one is the pilot buses selection based on the reduced Jacobian matrix and on voltage security performance index, and the third one is the CSVC system implementation based on the hybrid control approach using generators and shunt elements. These three steps are described in details in this paper. This procedure is used to maintain the voltage stability of large network. In this paper its efficiency is validated for small network also. Therefore it is implemented on the IEEE 39 bus system.
