본 논문은 최근 북미 지역을 중심으로 상용화에 대한 기대가 높아지고 있는 플러그인 하이브리드 전기자동차가 배터리의 충전을 위해 전기에너지 배전망에 직접 접속될 때 나타날 수 있는 설비의 과부하 및 전압문제 등에 대한 평가방법을 제안하고 실제 계통에 대한 평가결과를 분석한다. 플러그인 하이브리드 전기자동차가 일반 가정에서 충전되기 시작할 경우 전기에너지 배전계통은 가정에서 사용되어 오던 기존의 전기제품보다 훨씬 많은 전력을 소모하는 새로운 부하에 전력을 공급하게 되는 만큼 이를 배전계통의 설비계획에 반영하기 위한 모델링과 절차가 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 미국 전력연구소에서 북미지역의 전력회사들과 함께 수행하고 있는 관련 연구 과제를 소개하며 OpenDSS 프로그램을 통해 배전계통과 플러그인 전기자동차의 충전부하를 모델링하고 충전시각과 전기자동차 배터리 형태에 따른 다양한 시나리오를 적용하여 배전계통에 대한 플러그인 전기자동차 충전부하의 영향을 분석한다.

In the distribution systems, the maximum power transportation capacity is restricted within 40MW based on two lines, because of the thermal current limit of a distribution line. Recently it has been continuously required to expand the abilities of the power transportation in distribution systems, as the number of large scale industrial complexes and distributed generations are growing. In this paper, we suggested the five alternatives combining two methods, laying the two bundle lines and adding another voltage between the 22.9kV and 154kV in distribution systems. This paper implemented the economic evaluations of proposed alternatives from national and customer perspectives. And then we compare the results with those of 154kV transmission system.

The method proposed by the author is intended for assistance in decision-making (concerning changes of connections) by operators of complex distribution systems during states of malfunction (particularly in the events of malfunctions, for which the consequences encompass extended parts of the network), through designation of connection action scenarios (creating substitute configurations). It is the use by the classifying system working with the co-evolution algorithm that enables the effective creation of substitute scenarios for the Medium Voltage electric power distribution network. The author also completed works concerning the possibility of using cooperation of the evolutionary algorithm and the co-evolutionary algorithm with local search algorithms. The method drawn up may be used in current systems managing the work of distribution networks to assist network operators in taking decisions concerning connection actions in supervised electric power systems.

This paper presents an algorithm for calculation of harmonic distribution in distribution systems. In distribution systems, most state variables are not given explicitly. To calculate the harmonic distribution in distribution systems, state estimation is necessary. In this paper, power usage and harmonic current injection is estimated for each node from practically available data. The estimating procedure is illustrated by examples.

As the power industry moves towards open competition, there has been a call for methodology to evaluate power system reliability by using composite interruption cost. This paper presents algorithms to evaluate the interruption cost of distribution power systems by taking into consideration the failure source and the composite customer interruption cost. From the consumer's standpoint, the composite customer interruption cost is considered as the most valuable index to estimate the reliability of a power distribution system. This paper presents new algorithms that consider the load by customer type and failure probability by distribution facilities while calculating the amount of unserved energy by customer type. Finally, evaluation results of unserved energy and system interruption cost based on composite customer interruption cost are shown in detail.

Recently, the domestic and foreign power trends are the supply of high quality power and environment conservation technology based on the new energies development. So, the dispersed generation systems, such as photovoltaic, fuel cell, and battery are to be introduced in distribution systems. According to the situation change, power of high Quality and reliability are required in distribution systems with dispersed generation. Up to now, the voltage in distribution systems are regulated by ULTC of substation and pole transformer of primary feeders. These days, Step Voltage Regulator(SVR) is getting established at distribution feeders to regulate effectively voltage of primary ffeders that voltage drop exceeds $5\%$. But, because SVR is operated independently with ULTC of substation, SVR can not take play to its full effectivity. Under these circumstances, in order to deliver suitable voltages to as many customers as possible, new optimal voltage regulation algorithms are required in distribution system. So, this paper presents optimal voltage regulation algorithm to regulate voltage effectively for ULTC and SVR in distribution systems with dispersed generation systems.

본 논문에서는 태양광과 풍력, 연료전지 등의 신 에너지전원(또는 분산전원)이 연계된 배전계통에 있어서 발생 가능한 보호협조의 문제점을 해결하기 위한 통합 보호기기의 알고리즘을 제시한다. 신 에너지전원을 배전계통에 연계함으로써 에너지 효율을 높일 수 있으며, 송배전 선로 건설비용의 절감, 전력 손실 감소, 전압 보상 및 전력 공급의 신뢰도 향상과 같은 많은 장점을 얻을 수 있다. 이러한 많은 장점에도 불구하고 신 에너지전원을 배전 계통에 연계하였을 경우, 전압변동, 고조파, 전력 품질 저하, 단락 용량 증대와 같은 많은 문제점도 발생하여, 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위한 계통연계 장치 및 보호기기의 필요성이 증대하고 있는 실정이다. 즉, 현재의 배전계통 보호 방식은 단방향 조류방식으로 구성되어 있으나 분산전원의 도입으로 보호 기기가 설치되어 있는 계통에 정상상태임에도 불구하고 역방향의 전력조류가 발생될 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이에 대한 새로운 배전 보호 알고리즘을 탑재한 보호기기의 알고리즘을 제시한다.

This paper investigates the transient characteristics of grounding systems used in under-ground distribution power cables. Recently, two kinds of grounding system are used for underground distribution cables in Korea. The first one is conventional multi-point grounding system, the other is newly proposed non-bundled common grounding system. The non-bundled common grounding system has an advantage the decreasing the power loss due to decrease of the shield circulation current. In this paper, the lightning overvoltage induced in neutral wire (in case of non-bundled common grounding system, overvoltage between opened neural wires and grounding in each phase) of these two kinds of grounding systems are estimated and compared by field tests and EMTP simulations. The EMTP simulation methods are firstly verified by comparison of measurement and simulation. Finally, the insulation level against lightning is expected by EMTP simulation results using verified model.

The cascaded H-bridge (CHB) multilevel converter is a promising topology for large-scale photovoltaic (PV) systems. The output voltage over-modulation derived by the inter-module active power imbalance is one of the key issues for CHB PV systems. This paper proposed a dynamic power distribution strategy to eliminate the over-modulation in a CHB PV system by suitably redistributing the reactive power among the inverter modules of the CHB PV system. The proposed strategy can effectively extend the operating region of the CHB PV system with a simple control algorithm and easy implementation. Simulation and experimental results carried out on a seven-level CHB grid-connected PV system are shown to validate the proposed strategy.
