February 2020 - October 2020

Funding entity International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA)

The objective of the proposed grid integration study is the assessment of the impacts and constraints, from the technical prospective, of the integration of large amounts of hydro and variable solar and wind generation on the secure and reliable operation of the electricity network in Mozambique.

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
