Resumen:
Increasing penetration of renewable energy resources (RES) affects stability and, in particular, frequency stability of island power systems like the Canary Islands. System protection involves underfrequency load shedding (UFLS) as a last resort tool. The objective of this paper is to tune the parameters of a UFLS scheme based on the frequency stability margin (FSM) and compare its performance with conventional UFLS schemes. The performance is assessed by simulating the outage of generating units of a real isolated Spanish power system. The results of this study demonstrate that the introduction of the FSM in the UFLS scheme contributes to a significant improvement in its performance. The load shedding is delayed for moderate rate of change of frequency (ROCOF) values, and the amount of disconnected load is reduced.
Resumen divulgativo:
