Abstract: A recommended scheme of the QZ pumped-storage power station connecting to power system was introduced. The reasonable operating mode was chosen for the QZ pumped-storage power station based on the real condition of the power grid. Power flow and stability calculation was conducted for its connecting scheme and it was found that in the typical low load operating mode in winter when the interconnection lines between HN power grid and the NF power grid were disconnected, the QZ pumped-storage power station had some stability problems in the pumping mode. The instability mechanism was analyzed according to the stability curves in the situation when HN power grid and the NF power grid were interconnected or disconnected and the problem was identified as transient stability problem. Several measures were proposed for solving the stability problems according to the factors that affect the transient stability of the power system and the actual situation of the HN power system and the QZ pumped-storage units. Quantitative analysis was conducted for the measures implemented, which can provide a reference for the emergency plan and the dispatching operation of the QZ pumped-storage power plant.

Key words: pumped-storage power station, pumping mode, transient stability, stabilization measures
