Smart distribution networks are emerging systems to integrate distributed generation into the power grid and allow the clients to participate in energy market. In the near future, distribution networks will utilize communication and control systems to efficiently manage energy distribution. In accordance with this prospect, the industrial partner of this project, Vizimax Inc., has established a long-term strategy aiming at finding effective solutions for reliable and autonomous operation of smart grids. The fast detection of disturbances is a pivotal challenge for improving the reliability of smart grid which is one of the main goals established by the industrial partner. This six-month project focuses on the implementation of a new disturbance detection structure based on synchrophasor data. The synchrophasor data are provided by particular devices called phasor measurement units (PMUs). The proposed structure combined with the central controller facilitate fast detection as well as accurate elimination of disturbances. Therefore, the present project paves the way for reliable operation of smart microgrids. From the economical vantage point, this project contributes to higher efficiency at the system level as well as improved power quality at a low cost. The main focus of this project will be the development and implementation of algorithms for centralized disturbance detection in smart grids. To this end, the following steps will be taken: 1) Real-time assessment of voltage and frequency deviations, 2) Assessing reliability and robustness of detector with specified performance specifications, 3) Addressing issues related to implementation of the central disturbance detector, e.g., loss of synchrophasor data due to PMU failure and measurement noises. The successful completion of the proposed project will demonstrate our ability in carrying out state-of-the-art research and will establish a prosperous cooperation between Vizimax and my research team.
