Many uncertainties exist in power systems and they will affect the stability analysis results. Voltage stability considering uncertainty in load parameters will be discussed. With the assumption that parameter variation is normal distribution, the probabilistic characteristics of eigenvalues under the uncertainties of dynamic load parameters can be obtained. Distribution of the critical eigenvalue will determine the stability probability of a power system. The stability margin can be inferred from the probabilistic critical load level, which is the maximal load level where system is 'probabilistically' stable. Case studies on three test systems illustrate that the stability margin will be reduced with load uncertainty. The proposed probabilistic results are validated using deterministic method of Monte Carlo on multi 10 000 sample studies.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
