Wind energy based power generation is globally popular as renewable source of energy and nowadays it is bridging the gap of increasing energy demand of world. It is termed as one of the best solution to the usage reduction of fossil fuels and in turned fighting with the problem of global warming.The presented manuscript not only enumerates the significance of wind power but also highlights the important issues associated with wind energy based power plants: important ones are social and environmental. A case study is also presented in the paper modeled as wind energy generation system. Researchers and scientists are welcomed to provide the solutions to these highlighted issues so that these solutions can be used worldwide. This will make wind energy more popular and will be promoted exponentially.
Present paper describes the application and study of SSSC (Static Series Synchronous Compensator), a flexible Alternating Current Transmission System (FACTS) Controller for providing dynamic compensation to an interconnected power system. A combination of conventional sources 'diesel generating system' and a non-conventional energy source 'wind turbine generator system' has been used to design the power system. A SSSC is inserted in the middle of this combination and thus acting as a shunt connected static compensator therefore not affecting active power significantly but improving reactive power profiles directly.In this paper time Simulation studies investigate the effect of SSSC on the reactive power profiles of different generators and it also consider for stabilizing voltages of different loads. Simulations are carried out in Sim Power System toolbox of MATLAB software.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
