Short-circuit currents in information exchange between DSO and TSO, an approach from the Portuguese demonstration of the OneNet project

Description

The short-circuit current is one of the most important security operational parameters. With the increased penetration of DERs, it is crucial to frequently and periodically monitor it, ideally every 24 hours and with high granularity (e.g., 30 minutes). This paper develops a short-circuit computation methodology to calculate the complete short-circuit current in the TSO/DSO interface nodes (extra high voltage/high voltage (EHV/HV) substations), which could be used for operational planning purposes, considering the active contributions to the short-circuit current originating from both transmission and distribution networks. A TSO-DSO coordination procedure is presented to obtain the day-ahead short-circuit currents forecast. Moreover, two real cases are provided as examples for validation of the demonstrated procedures.
