Abstract: In this paper, a Smart Grid has been designed by MATLAB/SIMULINK approach for analysis of Active Power. Analysis of active
power gives the exact idea to know the range of maximum permissible loads that can be connected to their relevant bus bars. This paper
presents the change in the value of Active Power with varying load angle in context with small signal analysis. The Smart Grid, regarded as
the next generation power grid, uses two-way flow of electricity and information to create a widely distributed automated energy delivery
network.

I. INTRODUCTION

The smart grid is a modern electric power grid infrastructure which smoothly integrates automated control, advanced sensing and
metering technologies, modern communication infrastructure and modern energy management techniques into the electricity power
grid. The Smart Grid, regarded as the next generation power grid, uses two-way flows of electricity and information to create a
widely distributed automated energy delivery network. [1]. Smart grid is technically classified in three categories namely Smart
Infrastructure System, Smart Management Systemand Smart Protection System[2]. The simulation works of this paper is done
under the Smart Power generation [3] technique which is a part of Smart Infrastructure System. Active power is the main
parameter to show the stability of any power systemnetwork like conventional power grid, micro grid or any virtual power plant.
These distributed generators along with local loads and storage constitute micro grids. [4]. Active power control of smart grid
using plug-in hybrid vehicle has already done [5]. One of the essential components in a smart grid is energy storage. A Plug-in
Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) can be used as a smart storage in smart grids. PHEV is a vehicle that provides its forward
propulsion froma rechargeable storage to save fuel [6], [7].Different rating of storage and integrating devices are used to control
the frequency can creates a very complex situation. Since micro grids are a low voltage network which is generally not the case of
modern power systemnetwork [8].
In present scenario of power systemnetwork, conventional and distributed generation are combinedly used to control the power
flow in order to get a highly stable network. The smart grid model includes 4 units of Thermal power plant (conventional
generation) and 6 units of Wind power plant (distributed generation). Wind power plant is connected to major load side to control
the power flow and this connecting point is treated as smart grid. Power generated in Thermal power plant is done by Synchronous
generated and in Wind power plant Doubly Feded induction generator (DFIG) [9]. The rating of each thermal power plant is 900
MW where as wind power plant rating is 12 MW. 13.8 KV is generated by synchronous generated which is then step-up to 230 KV
of voltage level and 575 V is generated by DFIG which is again step-up to 230 KV because transmission voltage is 230 KV. The
overall Frequency of systemis controlled by controlling the frequency of both synchronous generator and DFIG independently.
The model simulates the power system network with two area system control where each area is characterized with two
conventional thermal power plant each having 900 MW capacity.

II. ACTIVE POWER ANALYSIS METHOD

Active power is the real power which flows in electrical network viz. transmission and distribution networks. Depending upon the
load angle gradient the flow of active power takes place from source to load or fromone area to another area.

FromFig. 1 the active power flowing from sending end to the receiving end. For small , active power can be controlled by
changing the angle between the sending end and receiving end voltages, VS and VR respectively. Moreover reactive power can
be controlled by controlling the difference between voltage magnitudes of VS and VR. For a two area system, during normal
operation the real power transferred over the tie line is given by

Fig.2 Tie Line Power Representation

In an interconnected power system, different areas are connected with each other via tie-lines. When the frequencies in two areas
are different, a power exchange occurs through the tie-line that connected the two areas. In case of Wind power plant DFIG is
used. Doubly-fed electric machines are basically electric machines that are fed ac currents into both the stator and the rotor
windings. Doubly-fed induction generators when used in wind turbines is that they allow the amplitude and frequency of their
output voltages to be maintained at a constant value, no matter the speed of the wind blowing on the wind turbine rotor. Because of
this, doubly-fed induction generators can be directly connected to the ac power network and remain synchronized at all times with
the ac power network.

In load analysis of above simulation model, Inductive and Active loads are varied in RL series load which is taken at both load
buses i.e. B3 and B6. Whereas capacitive load kept as it is with the initial value taken in series load. The value of capacitive load at
bus bar B3 is 200 MVAR where as 350 MVAR of capacitive value is taken at bus bar B6. Initially active and inductive load at B3
is taken as 1050MW and 130 MVAR respectively and at B6 the value of active load is 1850 MW and the value of inductive load is
140 MVAR. The maximumand minimummeasured frequency values on these loads are 50.252 Hz and 49.90 Hz respectively. The
active power values at this load condition is measured by the obtained graph is B1- 620.4 MW , B2- 458.7 MW , B3- 748.3 MW,
B4- 674.2 MW , B5- 673.5MW

Inductive and Active loads at both buses has increased simultaneously and this is found that when inductive and active load values
at bus B3 is 180 MVAR and 1030MW and load value at bus B6 is 190 MVAR and 1950 MW then active power measured at all
buses namely B1, B2, B3, B4 and B5 are not constant. Active power values at B1 has changed to 639.2 MW from620.4 MW, at
B2 it is found that active power values changed from458.7 MW to 473.2 MW and likewise active power values changes at all
buses like B3, B4 and B5.

The maximumvalues of load has already taken to check the maximumlimit of this smart grid network .To know these load
ranges, value of inductive load on bus bar B3 is decreased to 60MVAR fromtheir initial value which is 130 MVAR and value of
active load is decreased to 700 MW from their initial value of 1050 MW where as at bus bar B6, inductive load is decreased from
140 MVAR to 50 MVAR and active load is decreased from1850 MW to 1500 MW. At these load values, the values of maximum
and minimumfrequencies are measured to 50.80 Hz and 49.20 Hz.The active power values at this load condition are calculated
from the simulation graph is B1-588.4 MW, B2- 420.4 MW, B3- 576.1 MW, B4- 643.2 MW, B5- 640.3 MW.

IV. CONCLUSION
In this paper, load analysis has been done on this smart grid to check the stability in terms of active power flow. Active power
values at all buses has been changed with respect to changes in active and inductive load values at bus bar B3 and B6 keeping
capacitive load constant. Frequency has been also measured and keeping values of both active power and frequency , magnitude of
inductive and active load has been deduced while maintaining synchronismof the proposed smart grid model.
