Abstract:
In order to minimize the oil fuel consumption, in its power generation, PLN (Perusahaan Listrik Negara) as an electric state company has promoting a de-dieselization program which either integrated PV and existing diesel into Hybrid or install PV in the isolated system, to get optimum performance and reliability. However, the intermittent characteristic of PV should be considered since this would impact the frequency instability of the network system itself. To maintain the stability of the system, new system operations should be adopted. Thus, ADS (Automatic Dispatching System) is introduced to compensate the fluctuation sources from PV. Before ADS was implemented, dispatch combination between Diesel Generator (DG), and Photovoltaic (PV) has triggered unreliable supply since there is no load control center as well as the insufficient communication channel available. Implementing ADS, this allows PLN to minimize fuel consumption, and develop the first operational Smart Grid system. Subsequently, ADS has proven capable of maintaining frequency stability in the system that contains intermittent power generation. Based on the simulation study, and actual measurement testing, it can maintain the stability frequency within in its normal range (49,5 < Hz < 50,5).
