| Abstract | With more and more phasor measurements available and ModeMeter techniques maturing, there is yet a need for methods to bring modal analysis from monitoring to actions. The methods should be able to associate low damping with grid operating conditions, so operators or automated operation schemes can respond when low damping is observed. The work presented in this report aims to develop such a method and establish a Modal Analysis for Grid Operation (MANGO) procedure to provide recommended actions (such as generation re-dispatch or load reduction), and aid grid operation decision making for mitigating inter-area oscillations. This project directly contributes to the Department of Energy Transmission Reliability Program's goal of "improving reliability of the nation's electricity delivery infrastructure." |
