Support on «IRENA’s workshop for the Clean Energy Corridor of Central America»

J. Renedo I. Egido L. Sigrist

November 2019 - January 2020

Funding entity International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA)

The main objective of the workshop is to provide training in using PSS/E for system impact and connection studies of mainly on wind and solar power generation technologies. The workshop target audience are grid operators. A four-day training course is envisaged.

Research topics:
• Steady-state: load flows, analysis of power system constraints, optimal load flows, voltage control ancilliary service,short-circuits, protections in transmission and ditribution networks
• Stability: large disturbance stability, tuning of frequency loadshedding schemes, excitation control, small disturbance stability, tuning of power system stabilizers, identification of AVR and governor models
• Isolated systems: islands, microgrids, off-grid
• Power electronics
