Vulnerability Analysis of Multiple Critical Fault Outages and Adaptive Under Voltage Load Shedding Scenarios in Marmara Region Electrical Power Grid

The utilization of electrical power system has been rising frequently from past to now and there is a need of dependable electrical transmission and distribution networks so as to ensure continuous and balanced energy. Besides, conventional energy governance systems have been forced to change as a result of rises in the usage of renewable energy resources and the efficiency of demand-side on the market. In this regard, electrical power systems should be planned and operated, appropriately and the balance of production and consumption demand should be provided within the nominal voltage limits. In this study, firstly, the current status of Marmara region interconnected power grid in Turkey is evaluated. Afterwards, the multiple cascading failure outages scenarios are modelled by “DIgSILENT Power Factory V14” software. The critical transmission line scenarios are implemented on the high voltage power grid model improved. These scenarios are based on the period of maximum and minimum production and consumption demand and the effects of demand response in this period. As a result of grid vulnerability analyses performed, several findings has been obtained about the impacts of different line scenarios on the high voltage transmission system, the optimization of power grid voltage profile and the role of production and consumption demand response on voltage regulation
