The stability of inter-area electromechanical oscillations are critical to power system reliability. Due to the complexities of power systems, relationships between system conditions and oscillation characteristics, such as damping and frequency, tend to be expressed only in generalities. In this study, a list of influential factors on Western Electricity Coordinating Council (WECC) interconnect modal characteristics are identified and evaluated with advanced machine learning techniques including principal component analysis, analysis of variance, random forest feature selection, support vector machine, and artificial neural network approaches.
The paper presents the results of the development of the open-source suite of applications for synchrophasor analysis. The suite includes several software tools for oscillation analysis, power plant model validation, and frequency response analysis using synchrophasor measurements. All tools are based on the common framework and data sources. The developed tools have been used by the Bonneville Power Administration and other utilities for synchrophasor analysis. The paper includes several use cases based on the actual system PMU data.
