Abstract
Power networks are huge interconnected systems controlled by a large number of
different control authorities. As the nature of power networks is evolving from
a hierarchically structured system toward a much more decentralized system, the
need to adequately control the power flows over the network using distributed
control strategies increases. Currently available distributed control methods
assume that the various subnetworks that individual control agents, i.e., the
control authorities, control are usually touching, in the sense that the border
of one subnetwork is at the same time also the border of a neighboring
subnetwork. Such touching networks, however, do not necessarily capture the
subnetwork that an agent can influence in the best way. To capture in the best
way the subnetwork that an agent can influence overlapping subnetworks will
usually have to be defined. In this chapter, we propose a strategy for
coordinating multiple control agents that control overlapping subnetworks in a
network. Simulations are carried out on an adjusted IEEE 57-bus power network
in which the controlled entities are Flexible Alternating Current Transmission
Systems (FACTS) and the objective is to improve system security.
