| Objectives | Manitoba Hydro International (MHI) is a world leader in power system simulation and has developed a way to study electromagnetic transient (EMT) behaviour on large systems, like the full GB transmission system, using the PSCAD simulation software. This project proposes to have MHI develop and validate a full-scale model in PSCAD for the GB transmission system. The project scope will be to;• Develop new tools for automatic reduction of the PSCAD model to produce both static and dynamic equivalents of the reduced areas;• Develop new tools for configuration and quick initialisation of the EMT models to support future work by the Transmission Owners (TOs);• Perform illustrative studies based on the developed PSCAD network including;- sub-synchronous resonance investigations- control instability studies- switching studies on a selection of substations• Participate in a knowledge transfer workshop to provide the TOs and ESO with the capability to use the models, extend them as required in the future, and perform a range of studies. The objectives of the project are as follows:1. Validate a PSCAD model of the GB transmission network and from that derive separate models for each of the three TO licence areas;2. Deliver tools for PSCAD model manipulation and analysis that will support the TOs and the ESO in their use of the GB model;3. Provide the GB TOs and ESO with the knowledge and understanding required to adopt the models and put them into use; and4. Install shared computing resources for running the most complex models. | |
