A review of power system dynamic equivalents for transient stability studies

Abstract

Abstract The increasing complexity of interconnected power system has brought challenges to detailed dynamic simulation in terms of computational effort. Therefore, for transient stability assessment, dynamic equivalents of parts of large‐scale system are required to capture the electromagnetic transients. This paper presents a review of past research on dynamic equivalencing using coherency‐based methods and system identification methods. Future topics are discussed to improve the state‐of‐art approaches.
