Abstract (EN):
This paper presents an assessment of baseline and higher order grid security criterion applications on current power grid systems, with a focus on their implications in an island context. It considers the European grid code requirements for N-1 and higher order criteria as essential elements for the future deployment of insular distribution grid systems to improve security and stability. Consequently, in the opening section, major facts about island grid topology and current security challenges are illustrated based on a literature review. Afterwards, different approaches applied for security assessment are discussed. A summary of optimal power flow (OPF) approaches is given based on classic problem formulation, and a distribution grid security constrained assessment algorithm is proposed and assessed for island grid context.
