Identifying the Largest RoCoF and Its Implications

The rate of change of frequency (RoCoF) is a critical factor in ensuring frequency security, particularly in power systems with low inertia. Currently, most RoCoF security constrained optimal inertia dispatch methods and inertia market mechanisms predominantly rely on the center of inertia (COI) model. This model, however, does not account for the disparities in post-contingency frequency dynamics across different regions of a power system. Specifically, regional buses can exhibit significantly larger RoCoFs than that predicted by the system's COI, particularly in systems characterized by unevenly distributed inertia. In this letter, a post-contingency nodal RoCoF model is established, and the maximal initial RoCoF is further proven to occur at generator buses equipped with inertia, rather than at inertia-less load buses. This finding facilitates the development of the optimal nodal inertia dispatch method and the nodal inertia market mechanism in a convex and concise form. Our argument is further verified by the simulation results of the South East Australia power system under various scenarios.
