Voltage Stability of Electric Power Systems

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a model for voltage security assessment based on loadability, sensitivity, and Bifurcation analysis, and present a set of criteria and methods for Voltage Security Assessment.

Unit commitment by an enhanced simulated annealing algorithm

TL;DR: In this paper, a new simulated annealing (SA) algorithm combined with a dynamic economic dispatch method is developed for solving the short-term unit commitment (UC) problem.
Journal ArticleDOI

Contribution of Doubly Fed Wind Generators to Oscillation Damping

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of increased wind power penetration by doubly fed asynchronous generators (DFAGs) on oscillation damping are investigated, and it is shown that the general trend for DFAGs is to increase interarea oscillations, however, there are exceptions for certain penetration levels (not necessarily large), for which the voltage control (VC) option of DFAG can reduce damping.
