High Voltage<br />

<strong>Power</strong> <strong>Transmission</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Distribution</strong><br />

What can actually be done ? Are other large<br />

Systems in the World Safe ?<br />

• Improvement of System Protection <strong>and</strong> Enhancement of<br />

Communication <strong>and</strong> Monitoring with IT (EMS & DSM)<br />

• Review of Generator <strong>and</strong> Load Trip Strategy (Under-Voltage<br />

<strong>and</strong> Under-Frequency Trip Levels <strong>and</strong> Times)<br />

• Use of FACTS & HVDC for Reactive-<strong>Power</strong> Compensation,<br />

<strong>Power</strong>-Flow Control <strong>and</strong> Prevention of Voltage Collapse<br />

• Active Damping of <strong>Power</strong> Oscillations with FACTS & HVDC<br />

• Possibly more HVDC in the interconnected US-Canada Areas:<br />

HVDC is a Firewall against cascading events (Voltage Collapse<br />

<strong>and</strong> Frequency decline): Québec was not affected !<br />

• Increase of Reserve Capacity (HVDC, new Generations)<br />

Task Forces were “looking into” their<br />
