Voltage Inference for and Coordination of Distributed Voltage Controls in Extremely-High DER-Penetration Distribution Networks
The unique problems and phenomena in the distributed voltage control of large-scale power distribution systems with extremely-high DER-penetration are targeted in this paper. First, a DER-explicit distribution network model and voltage sensitivity are derived. Based on that, a voltage inference method is implemented to fill the gap of measurement insufficiency in the grid-edge areas. Then, autonomous Q control being implemented in each local area, a $\overline{Q}$-coordinated P control is designed to coordinate the reactive and real power controls. All the algorithms have been tested in standard and synthetic systems, and have expected results. Moreover, an open-source software platform, which integrates the modeling of communication networks, DER controls, and power networks, is developed to enable the distributed control and optimization algorithms in the grid simulation of the large-scale distribution systems.
