An online power system transient stability assessment method based on graph neural network and central moment discrepancy
Abstract
The increasing penetration of renewable energy introduces more uncertainties and creates more fluctuations in power systems. Conventional offline time-domain simulation-based stability assessment methods may no longer be able to face changing operating conditions. In this work, a graph neural network-based online transient stability assessment framework is proposed, which can interactively work with conventional methods to provide assessment results. The proposed framework consists of a feature preprocessing module, multiple physics-informed neural networks, and an online updating scheme with transfer learning and central moment discrepancy. The t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding is used to virtualize the effectiveness of the proposed framework. The IEEE 16-machine 68-bus system is used for case studies. The results show that the proposed method can achieve accurate online transient stability assessment under changing operating conditions of power systems.
