This paper deals with the development and testing of a large-scale, realtime digital power system simulator for the Korean Electric Power Corporation. The KEPS Simulation Center is located at KEPCO's research center (KEPRI) in Taejon, South Korea and has been operated since September 2001. The KEPS Simulation Center includes a wide range of off line power system simulation and analysis tools, as well as an advanced realtime digital simulator for the study of large scale AC and DC system performance. Because the application scope of the KEPS realtime simulator is broad and because the network models being considered are significantly larger and more complex than in traditional realtime simulator applications, many developments and tests have been required during the course of the project. In this paper, the authors describe some of these developments and present results from various benchmark tests that have been performed.

The main purpose of HITES(Highly Integrated Total Energy System) is to build and develop an integrated energy system for power system operational planning and analysis which consists of load forecast, economic generation schedule, stability analysis and relational database system. The HITES can be utilized to supply a stable electric power and operate KEPCO's power system facilities economically. This system was put into operation in 1999. This paper describes the main feature of the HITES, main functions, numerical methods adopted in this system and network configuration.

본 논문에서는 혼합정수 선형계획 법을 이용하여 장기 전력계통 계획수립시 최적의 설비를 투자할 수 있는 기법을 제안하였다. 발전설비와 송변전설비는 하나의 망으로 연결되어 상호 보완적 영향을 주기 때문에 계통계획시 두 설비를 동시에 평가하는 것이 무엇보다 중요하다. 또한 계획기간 전체에 대해 투자비를 고려하여 비용을 최소화해야 한다. 이를 위해 선형계획법을 계통계획에 도입하여 최소비용의 투자비를 가지고 공급 신뢰도 기준를 만족할 수 있는 최적 장기 전력계통 계획 수립기법을 개발하였다. 개발된 기법을 Garver 6모선 계통 및 제3차 전력수급기본계획에 대해 모의하여 결과의 타당성을 검증하였다.

There are many power system simulation software tools for time-domain performance in power system. This paper reports the results of time-domain simulation for the Jeju Power system with a secondary voltage regulation (SVR) model, developed with both TSAT and PSCAD/EMTDC and evaluates them, which are commercial software tools used for digital simulation of power system. TSAT has not been yet verified because of deficient modelling of components in the time domain performance of KEPCO power system. But PSCAD/EMTDC has been enough verified in our system. So, we need to compare and evaluate TSAT with PSCAD/EMTDC in small power system like Jeju. This paper showed that the results simulated by both TSAT and PSCAD/EMTDC is very similar to each other, so TSAT is able to apply for our KEPCO large power system.

In real-time power system control, it is essential to measure the power system variables which are voltage. current, real and reactive power, power factor, system frequency and etc. this variables can be estimated or calculated by the synchronized phasor informations of voltage and current. Therefore, the synchronized phasor measurement of voltage and current is very important to real-time power system control. So, we develop SPMD(Synchronized Phasor Measurement Device) for synchronized phasor measurement of voltage and current. In this paper, we present the design and implementation of SPMD for real-time phasor measurement and prove its performance by the test results.

Electric power has traditionally been supplied to the demander through power generation, its transmission, and final distribution system. It is, however, expected that the various dispersed power system will be located near demanders and act as a power source based on the efficient management of electric power demanders and the optimal utilization of substitute energy. More stable electric power and efficient utilization of various power sources can be guranteed through the connection of the dispersed power system into the existing power system. It is the purpose of this study that, in the case of the connection of dispersed power system into the existing distribution line, effects of the connection on the power quality and plans for protection of power equipments are discussed and solutions of them are proposed.

There are many attempts to apply AI technology to diagnose facilities or improve the work efficiency of the power industry. The emergence of new machine learning technologies, such as deep learning, is accelerating the digital transformation of the power sector. The problem is that traditional power systems face security risks when adopting state-of-the-art AI systems. This adoption has convergence characteristics and reveals new cybersecurity threats and vulnerabilities to the power system. This paper deals with the security measures and implementations of the power system using machine learning. Through building a commercial facility operations forecasting system using machine learning technology utilizing power big data, this paper identifies and addresses security vulnerabilities that must compensated to protect customer information and power system safety. Furthermore, it provides security guidelines by generalizing security measures to be considered when applying AI.

This paper presents an evaluation of the interruption costs for commercial customers in Korea using customer survey methodology. When various research results are examined, the evaluation of direct interruption costs becomes much more simplified. Especially, in the case of commercial customers, it is known that the evaluation of direct interruption costs is more useful. Accordingly, this paper selected the customer survey method to evaluate the interruption costs for commercial customers in Korea considering interruption and customer characteristics.
