Abstract

With the wide application of renewable energy sources, the impact of distributed power access units (DPGUs) on the stability of the power grid is becoming more and more important. This study aims to analyze the impact of DPGU control command issuance on the variation of grid node parameters through simulation. An advanced power system simulation software is used to construct a complex distribution grid model containing multiple DPGUs, including a simulation and analysis method of complex distribution network current characteristics and a voltage hierarchical coordinated control strategy based on inverter regulation for low- and medium-voltage distribution networks, and the process of issuing commands under different control strategies is simulated. By comparing and analyzing the voltage, frequency and power changes of each node before and after the execution of control commands, the specific influence mechanism of DPGU control on grid stability is revealed. The experimental results show that a reasonable control strategy can significantly improve the stability of grid node parameters and reduce fluctuations and mismatches. The results provide a theoretical basis for the optimization of the DPGU control strategy, which is of great significance for realizing the efficient and safe operation of the power grid.
