Overview
PCS-9000 energy management system (EMS) is a computer-aided tool used by
operators of electric utility grids to monitor, control, and optimize the performance
of the generation and/or transmission system. It adopts advanced network
management, object-oriented database and visualized cross-platform technology.
The system operates based on the latest IEC61970 standard, providing a unified
application platform for large scale energy management of power enterprises.

The PCS-9000 energy management system includes SCADA, Automatic

Generation Control (AGC), Power Advanced Software (PAS), Dispatching Training

integrated with other systems conformed to IEC61970 standard to protect the
existing investments and reduce function redundancy.

PCS-9000 contains two parts:

Unified Application Supporting Platform (ASP)

PCS-9000 unified application supporting platform(ASP) provides powerful and

universal services for distributed real-time database management, coordinated
man-machine interactive interface, network information transmission, inter-
process communication, system management and alarm service etc. It can
be transplanted and distributed on various hardware platform structures. Each
application function constructed on the basis of PCS-9000 ASP is a building block
that can be integrated with other functions or implemented separately.

Distributed System Structure

The database can be distributed at each node of system on request. The
perfect consistency strategy ensures the synchronous updating of all copies.
The multiple copies of database can avoid single node fault so as to increase
system reliability.
Flexible connection, distribution and multi-copies of database realize system
load balance and ensure system performance. The database system adopts
advanced connection pool management to realize multiplexing of database
connection and significantly reduce system overhead. In case of database
server failure, the system will automatically reconnect to the server of less
loads according to the connection and distribution strategy. Once local server
is restored, the connection will be switched to local server to maintain high
data access speed.
PCS-9000 provides two database connection modes, Client Only and Client/
Server, to realize efficient access to local database and transparent remote
access;
Unified management of real-time data and historical data is provided.

 Power Application
Software (PAS)

Power Application Software

PCS-9000 power application software(PAS) is a power grid modeling analysis tool
designed to enhance system safety and economical operation. It analyzes power
system operating status, helps dispatchers to understand system operation states
and provides basis for making analysis strategy.

The PCS-9000 PAS provides functions including Network Topology, State

Estimation, Dispatching Power Flow, Steady State Contingency Analysis, Volt/Var
Optimization, Short-term Load Forecasting, Short-circuit Current Calculation and
Automatic Volt/Var Control, etc.

Network Modeling
The basic functions of network modeling are to define network model, establish
grid model database and define network physical structure for network analysis
software. Network Modeling is the foundation of all network analysis applications.

Network Modeling is fully compatible with IEC61970 standard. It adopts CIM

based Integrative Graphic Model Library modeling mode which is realized by the
combination of Integrative Graphic Model Library drawing pack and database
maintenance tools. The established network models are shared by all network
analysis applications and training simulation system, and are capable of data
exchange with third party systems via CIS data exchange interface. During
network database maintenance, all application software can run normally.

Network Topology
Network Topology function identifies system wiring configuration according to
interconnection relations of grid electric elements and circuit breakers statuses,
and creates network busbar model for analysis application software. It can
determine the number of topological islands, the composition of topological
islands and their operation conditions, and indicate these items on graphics with
different colors. The Network Topology function is a common modular used for all
network analysis software and training simulation systems.

Power Application
Software (PAS)

State Estimation
State Estimation is used to check tele-signaling and tele-metering of each
plant/station to facilitate the maintenance of measuring system. It uses state
estimation calculation results to count heavy loads over-limit time, provide real-
time supervisory control of power network and issue over-limit time alarms. The
calculation results can also be used for further grid analysis.

In state estimation, the grid can be divided into 2 parts: visible part and invisible
part. Visible part refers to the measured values of sufficient redundancy in grid,
while other parts in the grid are referred as invisible part or external part. Pseudo
measurements can be applied to convert the invisible part to visible part to for
calculation.

Dispatcher Load Flow

Dispatcher Load Flow(DLF) is a network analysis software which calculates
the operation status of whole network according to the given grid structure and
operating conditions, including voltage of each bus and power distribution in
the network. In addition, it provides statistics of power generation output, total
loads and power loss etc. and analyzes the reasonableness of operating mode
according to the calculation results.

DLF software provides convenient and flexible interaction platform to implement

flow control, mode selection, task status, parameters input and data display of all
use man-machine interactive graphics. DLF software provides strict calculation
models and many calculation methods. DLF can set a number of generators as
buffer and perform multi-balancing unit Load Flow Calculations. DLF can set
frequency calculation mode and simulate primary frequency regulation process
of grid. DLF can set exchanging power control mode to control tie-line load
flow among a number of control zones. DLF can set control mode and control
voltage of key equipment point by adjusting the voltages of a number of power
generators.

Short Term Load Forecasting

Short-term Load Forecast(SLF) is used to forecast hourly (or half-hourly or every
fifteen minutes) future load in one day or one week based on the historical loads

Automatic Voltage
Control (AVC)

Automatic Voltage Control(AVC) is an automatic optimal control of network

voltage/reactive power(Volt/Var) that network losses are reduced as much as
possible to improve economic operation while ensuring voltage quality, and in
the meantime the amount of operating equipments is reduced to the minimum to
reduce control costs and fault probability.

PCS-9000 AVC function offers centralized decision and multi-level coordination

to achieve automatic optimal voltage control. The system is composed of one
AVC master station system installed in provincial dispatching center, several
coordination control sub-systems installed in regional power plants and 500kV
substations, associated communication systems and data transmission networks.
The AVC system installed in provincial dispatching center assigns optimal control
goals for each sub-system based on busbar voltage supervision and reactive
power optimization calculations. The communication system and the network
equipments will deliver the optimal goals to control sub-systems for execution.

Provincial dispatching centers provides the control of busbar voltage and unit
reactive power in power plants and substations of 220kV and above levels.
The control measures include generator reactive power output regulation, Var
compensator enabling/disabling, main transformer tap position regulation in
500kV substations, low voltage capacitor compensator enabling/disabling in
220kV/110kV substations and main taps position regulations via AVC control at
regional dispatching center.

Main control functions of AVC control at provincial dispatching center:

Calibration control of busbar voltage over-limit: once a busbar voltage

overlimit is detected in network, the system will provide calculation and
analysis to create a control plan and take measures to bring system back to
the permissive range.

Optimal control of reactive power flow: AVC periodically provides optimal

control of reactive power flow when busbar voltages at each network pilot
node is not over-limit.
