Abstract

Load modeling is very important to power system operation and control. Measurement-based load modeling has been widely practiced in recent years. Mathematically, measurement-based load modeling problem are closely related to the parameter identification area. Consequently, an efficient optimization method is needed to derive the load model parameters based on the feedback of estimation errors between the measurements and model outputs. This paper reports our work on applying genetic algorithms on measurement-based load modeling research. Due to its robustness to the initial guesses on the load model parameters, genetic algorithms are very suitable for load model parameter identification. Two cases including both the real measurement in a power station and the digital simulation are studied in the paper. For comparison purpose, the classical nonlinear least square estimation method is also applied to find the load model parameters. The simulated outputs from the load model confirm the efficiency of genetic algorithms in measurement-based load modeling analysis. Future work will focus on fastening the converging speed of the genetic algorithms, and/or utilizing more efficient evolutionary computation methods. © 2007 IEEE.
