Synopsis

Power System Protection in Future Smart Grids: Achieving Reliable Operation with Renewable Energy, Electric Vehicles and Distributed Generation demonstrates how to protect smart, highly renewable, and highly distributed power systems with state-of-the-art methods rooted in adaptive protection and dynamic response, and based on continuous communication. Focusing on the implementation of novel protection schemes, each chapter presents solutions accompanied by figurative elements and demonstrator codes in MATLAB, C, Python and Java. Chapters address active distribution networks, hybrid microgrids, EVs and inverters on fault levels, adaptive protection systems, dynamic protection strategies, and Hardware in the Loop (HiL) approaches.

• Demonstrates how to mitigate the numerous unanticipated protection consequences of smarter grids and smarter grid equipment
• Focuses on providing communication-based solutions and power hardware in the loop modeling for integration of novel devices
• Emphasizes the importance of automation, communication, and cybersecurity in future protection systems
• Fully supported with modern demonstrator coding in MATLAB, C, Python, and Java

About this title

About the Author

Taha Selim Ustun received his Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering from Victoria University, Melbourne, VIC, Australia. Currently, he is a researcher at Fukushima Renewable Energy Institute, AIST (FREA) and leads the Smart Grid Cybersecurity Lab. Prior to that he was an Assistant Professor of Electrical Engineering with the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, PA, USA. His research focuses on novel protection challenges that are encountered in new generation power systems, particularly in the development of new protection coordination techniques, communication approaches and testing procedures. With the aim of achieving duplicable and scalable solutions, his research also focuses on standards such as IEC 61850. Recently, his research has concentrated on achieving safe and reliable operation under cyberattacks given the unprecedented cybersecurity vulnerabilities inherent in highly connected smart grids.
