Optimal allocation and sizing of ESSs for power system oscillation damping under high wind power penetration

This paper proposes a novel power oscillation damping approach for transient stability enhancement of a power system with high penetration of wind power, where the energy storage system (ESS) is utilized to assist the damping of power oscillation with power system stabilizer and power oscillation damper. First of all, the ESS-based power system stabilizer and power oscillation damper structures are proposed to enhance the flexibility of power input and output of the wind turbines and the synchronous generators. Subsequently, the effect of installing ESSs for the enhancement the SGs and WTs' damping torque is analyzed. In the meantime, we proposed an optimal allocation approach to decide the installation nodes of the ESSs by minimizing the Euclidean distance of the system's uncontrollable oscillation modes to its controllability Gramian, along with the optimal sizing approach of ESSs via a novel unit load energy function averaging approach. Simulations are conducted to validate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme, and the superior performance of the proposed approach is also proven via comparative studies.
