Chapter Abstract:
This chapter discusses special attributes of the specific power electronic‐based technologies to enhance system dynamics. It also discusses optimal placement of the technologies in detail. After a discussion on the application of virtual synchronous generators (VSGs) in power system stability and performance improvement, optimal placement of dispatchable inertia besides the associated realization mechanisms would be emphasized. Without the loss of generality, while distributed generations (such as wind farms), high‐voltage direct current systems, and energy storage systems (ESSs) could emulate virtual inertia, the ESSs are considered as the source of virtual inertia in this chapter. Manipulation of the inertia constant by the VSGs could enhance system dynamics and stability. This could be realized using inertia‐based control schemes. Indeed, inertia provision plays an important role in designing advanced control schemes in modern power grids. Optimal placement of virtual inertia can be studied in two perspectives: frequency stability and small‐signal stability.
