Analysis of the contribution of wind power plants to damp power system oscillations

Abstract: Wind power has emerged as one of the most promising renewable energy sources. The very penetration levels of wind energy in power systems have altered several aspects of power system operation, such as system stability. Owing to the large penetration of wind power, transmission system operators (TSOs) have established special grid codes for wind farms connection. These grid codes require wind farms to provide ancillary services to the grid such as frequency and voltage regulation. In the near future, the capab… Show more

“…In addition, the inclusion of power converters as an interface between the generator and the AC grid has enabled wind farms to operate similarly as conventional generation units do. Thus, wind power facilities can be considered as wind power plants (WPPs) [20,30,31], so that they are capable not only to generate active power, but also to provide support for grid voltage [32,33] and frequency [34][35][36], hence contributing to power system stability [37][38][39][40][41]. For offshore wind applications, Voltage Source Converters VSC-HVDC are preferred over Line Commutated Converters LCC-HVDC as they can be connected to weak grids, since they do not rely on the AC system to support their operation and they have less filter requirements, enabling a reduction in the size of the substation [42,43].…”
