Stanford Summer Energy SchoolFundamentals of the Electric Grid
Kevin TomsovicCTI Professor and EECS Department Head
Overview – Part 1• Broad overview of power grid fundamentals
• DC vs. AC • Edison and Westinghouse (Edison may yet win)
• Three phase systems
• Power concepts
• Traditional generation technologies• Synchronism as the foundation of operation
• Load – Frequency control• Load following – frequency control
• The power system in the steady-state• Transmission system and power flows
• Reactive power/voltage and real power/phase
• Power system reliability• Security vs. adequacy
Components of the Grid
• Generation
• Transmission– 115 kVolts 765 kVolts
– Networked
• Distribution– 4 kVolts to 69 kVolts
– Radial
• Load

DC vs. AC
• Direct current (DC)– DC machines– Batteries– Fuel cells– Photovoltaic
• Alternating current (AC)– AC machines– Power electronic converters– 60 Hertz in the US

Edison vs. Tesla/Westinghouse
• DC– Pushed by Thomas Edison (GE)– Could not change voltage levels (no transformer) so cannot transmit over long distances– DC generator (high maintenance)– Difficult to interrupt high currents (no zero crossing)
• AC– Nikola Tesla (moved from Edison to Westinghouse)– Can efficiently change voltage levels (transformer) and so transmit over long distances (high voltage)– Induction and synchronous machines – Easier to interrupt high currents
DC actually has many advantages
Frequency and Phase• The number of “cycles” per second (Hertz)
– Zero for DC– Many options for AC
– Grid - 60 in the US, 50 in Europe, both in Japan
– Aircraft – 400, Some trains in Europe – 16.67
• Phase – relative relationship between two signals– Usually measured in degrees (easy to translate to time)
– 30 degrees or 1.4 msec

Phasors
• Need a simpler notation and all that matters is magnitude and relative phase if single frequency
• Define
• We properly do this using Euler’s identity
• with j an imaginary number or 90O

Three phase electric poweranother major benefit
• Assume balanced in all three phases
• Constant power output – far more efficient

What is reactive power?And why should we worry about it?
• The part of p(t) which does no work on average (but it may be needed to get work done)
• Analogies– Pressure in a water hose
– Foam on the beer (just takes up room in glass)
• Physically– Primarily line charging (magnetic fields) associated with
transmission lines and motor windings
• Practically– Needed to maintain voltage for long distance transmission and to
supply induction machines
P (Watts – you pay for this)
Energy ConversionThree phase synchronous Machines
• DC supplied to rotor which is driven at some constant speed of rotation (say 3600 RPM for two pole machine resulting in 60 Hz)
• Three phase windings spaced by 120 degrees• Power is produced only at this frequency (else p(t)=0)• Relative angle between fields determines real power output

Essentially all synchronous
Since most generation is from synchronous machines, the interconnected power system swings together.
Synchronism
Frequency
• To maintain frequency, load and generation (minus losses) must balance• An increase in load decreases frequency so generators respond to frequency dip
by increasing output• Coordination from control centers results in a simple but very effective means of
load following
• Load frequency control• Inputs – scheduled and actual tie line flows (difference is area control errors), frequency
deviation (also frequency response characteristic)• Output – generator set point adjustments around once every 4 seconds

Summary Comments and Opinions
• Electricity grid is central to solving energy problems• Wind has perhaps the greatest potential – difficulty
of variability may have been overstated by media and utilities
• Appropriate control methods need to be developed with greater demand side response and new storage
• Shifting of greater load to grid has benefits both for reduced emissions and for easier control
