In a bid to avoid the repeat of the major power breakdown of July 2012, the IIT-Bombay, will soon develop analytics to provide Gujarat Electricity Transmission Corporation (Getco) real-time load data, which will maintain stable operation in the event of small disturbances in Gujrat.Speaking to media persons in Mumbai today, Getco Managing Director Surinder Negi said that dynamic stability analysis is necessary mainly because the grid is integrated and any disturbance in one region can result in blackout in the other grids area as well. He added that IIT-Bombay is developing a system protection that will provide real-time data to the load centre, which can then take emergency control action in case of grid disturbances.IIT-Bombay is also working with PowerGrid for a similar system protection to prevent power outages in case of over-drawl of electricity.
