September 2017 - December 2017

Funding entity International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA)

The objective of the project is to determine the maximum amount of PV generation that can be installed in the island system of Viti Levu. The study starts by determining the maximum amount at zonal level in distribution grids befor analizing the impact at system level.

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
