Summary:

In this work, a tool for the evacuation of Primary Frequency Control (PFC) service by generators connected to the distribution network is proposed. To achieve this goal, a linear AC Optimal Power Flow (OPF) model with a minimization objective and generation re-dispatch constraint is developed to guarantee the provision of the control service. Tests are carried out on an 8-bus system and a real High Voltage (HV) distribution grid. The obtained results revealed that the algorithm can guarantee the provision of the required PFC service provision by re-dispatching the connected generators while at the same time satisfying other operation and network constraints.

Spanish layman's summary:

Este trabajo propuso una herramienta para la evacuación del control primario de frecuencia por parte de generadores conectados a la red de distribución. Para lograr este objetivo, se desarrolla un modelo de flujo de potencia óptimo AC lineal con un objetivo de minimización y redespacho de generación para garantizar la prestación del servicio.
