Transient Stability Preventive Control Based on SCINet and IDBO

In transient stability preventive control of power systems, time-domain simulation is computationally intensive. In addition, the initial operating feature data often contain abundant redundant and irrelevant information. These factors may adversely affect the assessment performance of machine learning models. To address these issues, a transient stability preventive control method based on the sample convolution and interaction network (SCINet) is proposed. First, a feature selection algorithm based on the orthogonal maximal information coefficient and information gain (OMICIG) is developed to extract the key operating features of the system. Second, the SCINet model is employed to learn the nonlinear mapping relationship between the selected key operating features and the transient stability index (TSI). Then, the trained SCINet model is embedded into the transient stability constrained optimal power flow (TSCOPF) model as a surrogate transient stability constraint. In this way, the complicated computation associated with nonlinear differential-algebraic equations (DAE) in the conventional TSCOPF model is avoided. Furthermore, an improved dung beetle optimizer (IDBO) algorithm is used to iteratively solve the resulting model, thereby deriving a preventive control strategy that ensures transient stability while maintaining system operating economy. Finally, simulation studies on the New England 10-machine 39-bus and the IEEE 118-bus system demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
