Abstract
- Power system inertia is declining and is increasingly variable and uncertain in regions where the penetration of non-synchronous generation and interconnectors is growing. This presents a challenge to power system operators who must take appropriate actions to ensure the stability and security of power systems relying on short-term forecasts of the system’s inertial response. Existing models to forecast inertia fail to quantify uncertainty, which may prevent their utilization given the risk aversion of the system operators when handling stability issues. This paper is the first to develop a model to produce calibrated, data-driven probabilistic forecasts of the inertia contribution of transmission-connected synchronous generators. The model provides a necessary tool for system operators to quantify forecast uncertainty, allowing them to manage the risk of frequency instability cost-effectively. The paper demonstrates that the assumption of a Gaussian distribution of uncertainty applied in existing models is not acceptable to accurately forecast the inertial response and provides a satisfactory forecast model by combining non-parametric density forecasting with parametric tail distributions. Moreover, the paper shows that satisfactory predictive performance can only be achieved by adopting a rolling horizon forecast approach to deal with the rapidly changing characteristics of the inertial response in power systems.
