Abstract
This paper investigates the dynamic impacts of distributed energy resources (DERs) by utilization of symmetrical and asymmetrical analyses on the power system. In the proposed transmission and distribution (T&D) co-simulation framework, the transmission network is modeled using sequence networks, while the distribution network is modeled in a full three-phase manner. Also, the North American Electric Reliability Corporation DER model (NERC-2018) is utilized to model the dynamics of the DER-A control scheme. DER-A mechanism is modeled downstream of the distribution substation. Here, the transmission system is modeled using the IEEE 118-bus test system.In this paper, the impacts of the DER-A control parameters on the DER operation and the dynamics of the transmission system are examined in the balanced and unbalanced power systems. It is shown that the DER-A control mechanism injects more reactive power during a fault in an asymmetrical system than in a symmetrical one initiating voltage overshoot.
