Stakeholder Training for IEEE 1547-2018 (Abbreviated Final Technical Report)

This project identifies and makes publicly available educational materials to assist stakeholders in adopting the revised IEEE Std 1547-2018, Standard for Interconnection and Interoperability of Distributed Energy Resources with Associated Electric Power Systems Interfaces. The new standard is significantly different than the previous 2003 version, contains new concepts and new technical requirements, and requires educational material on the application of these changes. NREL had a principal role in accelerating the revision process though its chairmanship of the IEEE Std 1547 working group to revise the standard and through technical support provided to the working group. Under this project, NREL and partners compiled and developed publicly available educational materials for IEEE Std 1547-2018, including webinars, white papers, and other resources on related topics.

Distributed Wind Considerations from the IEEE 1547-2018 Revision

The revision of the U.S. interconnection Standard IEEE 1547 in 2018 (IEEE 1547-2018) has added new interconnection and interoperability requirements for grid-connected distributed wind generators (DWG / wind turbines) and all other distributed energy resources (DERs). These new requirements will enable distributed wind generators to provide greater benefits to electric grid operators and DER operators, but also presents new challenges for the testing and certification of DWG systems. This report provides a summary of recent interconnection standard revisions from a DWG perspective, outlines the potential benefits to the power system from the revisions, evaluates the main concerns from a DWG manufacturer’s perspective, and provides general industry guidance related to IEEE 1547-2018 adoption.

Transient Stability Study of IEEE 2800-2022 Standard Negative-Sequence-Current Compliant GFM IBRs

The primary function of grid-forming (GFM) inverter-based resources (IBRs) is to maintain voltage and fre- quency/phase angle stability; however, during unbalanced grid faults, IEEE Std. 2800-2022 requires IBRs to inject both positive- and negative-sequence reactive current. Enforcing compliance with this standard could compromise the stability of GFM IBRs under such fault conditions. This paper presents a preliminary transient stability study focused on the power angle stability of GFM IBRs operating in compliance with IEEE Std. 2800 during unbalanced faults. The goal is to assess potential stability issues associated with the standard's current injection requirements under fault ride-through conditions. The results show that injecting positive-sequence current with d-axis priority during unbalanced faults better preserves the power angle stability than the q-axis priority while still enabling negative-sequence current injection. These findings suggest that, to ensure stability, GFM IBRs might need to partially comply with IEEE Std. 2800 by prioritizing positive-sequence current injection along the d-axis.

Fault Response of Distributed Energy Resources Considering the Requirements of IEEE 1547-2018

Inverter-based DER responses to faults on the electric power system are different than those of conventional generators and are often poorly understood. Inverter fault responses are largely software-defined, within physics-based constraints. DERs are regulated by standards and grid codes that also constrain their responses. Though fault response of DERs will vary widely, for any DER following any particular standard, a pattern of fault response can be synthesized by observing that particular standard. In this paper, the recently published IEEE 1547-2018 is examined to explore the general fault response of any DER that follows IEEE 1547-2018. Additionally, an IEEE 1547-2018 compliant inverter model is developed and tested in simulation to find the fault response, and that response is compared with the fault response of a commercial off-the-shelf inverter.

IEEE 342 Node Low Voltage Networked Test System

The IEEE Distribution Test Feeders provide a benchmark for new algorithms to the distribution analyses community. The low voltage network test feeder represents a moderate size urban system that is unbalanced and highly networked. This is the first distribution test feeder developed by the IEEE that contains unbalanced networked components. The 342 node Low Voltage Networked Test System includes many elements that may be found in a networked system: multiple 13.2kV primary feeders, network protectors, a 120/208V grid network, and multiple 277/480V spot networks. This paper presents a brief review of the history of low voltage networks and how they evolved into the modern systems. This paper will then present a description of the 342 Node IEEE Low Voltage Network Test System and power flow results.

An Extended IEEE 118-Bus Test System With High Renewable Penetration

This article describes a new publicly available version of the IEEE 118-bus test system, named NREL-118. The database is based on the transmission representation (buses and lines) of the IEEE 118-bus test system, with a reconfigured generation representation using three regions of the US Western Interconnection from the latest Western Electricity Coordination Council (WECC) 2024 Common Case [1]. Time-synchronous hourly load, wind, and solar time series are provided for over one year (8784 hours). The public database presented and described in this manuscript will allow researchers to model a test power system using detailed transmission, generation, load, wind, and solar data. This database includes key additional features that add to the current IEEE 118-bus test model, such as: the inclusion of 10 generation technologies with different heat rate functions, minimum stable levels and ramping rates, GHG emissions rates, regulation and contingency reserves, and hourly time series data for one full year for load, wind and solar generation.

Support for the 2019 IEEE Symposium on Fusion Engineering

This award provided financial support to help cover program-related expenses for the 2019 IEEE Symposium on Fusion Engineering (SOFE-2019), which was held 2-6 June 2019 near Jacksonville, FL. The SOFE is a biennial conference that enables fusion engineers from around the world to report on their work and stay current with the latest developments in fusion R&D, both physics and engineering. The symposium was sponsored by the Nuclear and Plasma Sciences Society (NPSS) of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), an international professional society whose members today span a wide range of disciplines. The IEEE Fusion Technology Standing Committee (FTC), most of whose members are involved in DOE Fusion Energy Sciences (FES) sponsored work, were responsible for organizing the SOFE. The SOFE has been the leading conference of choice for U.S. fusion engineers since its founding in 1965. In recent years, attendance has been growing as the conference has attracted greater participation of fusion researchers from other countries, especially from Asia but also from Europe and from the international ITER project, both central team and domestic agencies. This trend benefits U.S. participants by providing a forum to learn about the world’s most advanced fusion engineering activities and to strengthen collaborative ties with colleagues.

Defining the IEEE-854 floating-point standard in PVS

A significant portion of the ANSI/IEEE-854 Standard for Radix-Independent Floating-Point Arithmetic is defined in PVS (Prototype Verification System). Since IEEE-854 is a generalization of the ANSI/IEEE-754 Standard for Binary Floating-Point Arithmetic, the definition of IEEE-854 in PVS also formally defines much of IEEE-754. This collection of PVS theories provides a basis for machine checked verification of floating-point systems. This formal definition illustrates that formal specification techniques are sufficiently advanced that is is reasonable to consider their use in the development of future standards.

IEEE STD. 1012 and NEI 96-07, Appendix D - Strange bedfellows? - 149

The final draft of a revision to IEEE Std. 1012-2012, 'IEEE Standard for System, Software and Hardware Verification and Validation', is expected to be approved for publication in June 2017. A draft of NEI 96-07, Appendix D, 'Supplemental Guidance for Application of 10 CFR 50.59 to Digital Modifications', has been submitted to the NRC staff for review and endorsement. What, if any, relationship exists between these two documents? How can the nuclear industry utilize the first one to help ensure success when applying the second one? NRC Regulatory Guides only endorse digital system and software related industry standards for application to safety-related systems and components, but the vast majority of digital modifications are made to non-safety related systems and components, so are these industry standards of little or no use when performing digital upgrades to non-safety related equipment? This paper answers these and other related questions and shows how application of a graded approach to verification and validation, utilizing the IEEE Std. 1012 concept of 'integrity level', can increase the likelihood of a 10 CFR 50.59 evaluation outcome that does not require prior NRC review and approval for non-safety related digital modifications.
