Verified LSPV plant model has been utilised to capture its behavior and system strength at various penetration levels with the impact of inverter-based loads on dynamic voltage stability. Moreover, it develops a reliable global dynamic voltage stability assessment index and proposes effective countermeasures to alleviate the detrimental impacts of LSPV plants. The countermeasures includes a data- driven approach considering full voltage trajectory and involving various dynamic interactions to allocate dynamic VAr source to secure system strength with higher penetration of LSPV plants.161en-USdynamic VAr supportLarge-scale PV integrationshort term voltage stabilityThesis
