    Guidelines for Developing Low Frequency Model Equivalents in Emerging Electrical Grids
    (2018-12-06) Al-Eryani, Sameh Mohammed Anas; Zareipour, Hamidreza; Westwick, David T.; Nowicki, Edwin Peter
    Dynamic model equivalents of power systems is an ongoing topic that continues to be relevant despite computing power advancements. Today's electrical grids are going through significant changes. The integration and installation of technologies that use power electronic devices pose a continuous need for stability studies in many fronts. Literature focuses on dynamic model equivalent techniques, their development and validation. However, the literature lacks comprehensive guidelines to produce equivalent models consistently. This thesis presents a general procedure and guidelines to develop low frequency dynamic model equivalents. The proposed procedure and guidelines are aimed at developing consistent and reliable low frequency model equivalents. The guidelines will be demonstrated on a test system to validate the recommendations and show the impact of not following a consistent methodology in developing the equivalent. Finally, the procedure and guidelines will be applied on Alberta Interconnected Electric System to demonstrate the application on a real system model.
