Abstract
The massive integration of clean energy and renewable energy source (RES) is one of the most important trends in the low carbon energy transition toward carbon neutrality. Such an important goal significantly alters the power system dynamic behavior. Consequently, monitoring and analyzing the complex frequency dynamic of RES-dominated power systems play an essential role in ensuring power system security and stability. The measurements, especially those supported by wide area measurement systems (WAMSs), can enable full state awareness and deep informatization of the power system and therefore provide effective solutions for monitoring and analyzing system frequency dynamic behaviors with complex features. This paper focus on the application of measurements in monitoring and modeling analysis technologies for the features of frequency dynamics of RES-dominated power systems. We summarize related research on online monitoring of frequency dynamic behavior features based on the information from measurements. Further, for system frequency security assessment, measurements can improve the traditional methods and promote new data-driven methods for more accuracy and effective frequency dynamics analysis. Finally, future directions and possible solutions for measurement-based frequency dynamics monitoring and analyzing are prospected.
