Abstract

The intelligent interconnection of AC grids across diverse regions, incorporating renewable energy sources and complex, a nonlinear grid configurations, presents significant challenges to power system stability. To mitigate instability and suppress power oscillations during short-circuit faults in AC grids, this work focuses on leveraging high-performance power electronic converters, specifically Line Commutated Converters (LCCs) based on High-Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) in parallel links, to facilitate efficient power exchange and enhance grid integration and stability. This work proposes an advanced control framework for intelligent interconnection systems; a dual-layer control strategy is introduced, combining a Conventional Power System Stabilizer (CPSS) for local damping of synchronous generator oscillations and a Power Oscillation Damping (POD) controller for global mitigation of inter-area and Wide-Area Oscillations (WAO). This integrated approach is established as a leading control methodology for LCC-HVDC systems, enabling robust synchronous interconnections between hybrid AC/DC grids. The paper further examines key challenges in designing and implementing the LCC-HVDC-based POD controller, addressing dynamic performance and system-wide coordination. Dynamic simulations are conducted using the Power System Toolbox (PST) in MATLAB, leveraging its user-friendly interface and computational efficiency. The results demonstrate superior dynamic response, with rapid oscillation damping and enhanced steady-state performance, validating the proposed controller's efficacy in improving transient stability.

Abstract

In this paper, we describe the design, control, and management of a photovoltaic (PV) power supply system for a remote telecommunications facility situated in Bab Ezzouar, Algiers, Algeria, that maintains Base Transceiver Stations (BTS) in remote areas where the intermittent grid is either unavailable or non-existent. The proposal is developed and modeled in MATLAB/Simulink for a freestanding PV-battery hybrid system that utilizes a DC-DC boost converter regulated by a Perturb and Observe (P&O) Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) algorithm. The proposed system endeavour’s to maximize solar energy harvesting while maintaining a constant energy supply for remotely situated telecommunication BTS without grid connection in a variety of environmental conditions. The simulation results indicate effective MPPT and battery charge-discharge management performance, ensuring BTS autonomy and serviceability 24/7, while demonstrating both technical feasibility and operational efficiency associated with the use of PV-based systems to meet the energy needs of isolated telecommunication infrastructure in North African regions, which have considerable solar potential.
