“…Voltage variations due to WPPs are affected by many factors, such as wind variations, the tower shadow effect, grid strength, i.e., short-circuit capacity ratio, type of WTGs, number of operating turbines, and switching period [24]. The voltage variation is directly dependent on real and reactive power variations.…”

Large penetration of wind energy systems into electric-grids results in many power quality problems. This paper presents a classification of power quality issues, namely harmonics and short-duration voltage variation observed due to the integration of wind power. Additionally, different techniques and technologies to mitigate the effect of such issues are discussed. The paper highlights the current trends and future scopes in the improvement of the interconnection of wind energy conversion systems (WECSs) into the grid. As the voltage variation is the most severe power quality issue, case studies have been presented to investigate this problem using steady-state time-series simulations. The standard IEEE test system namely IEEE 123-node test feeder and IEEE 30-node grid are solved under different operating conditions with wind power penetration. Typical daily load profiles of a substation in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and an intermittent wind power generation profile are used in all case studies. Mitigation of voltage variations due to wind intermittency is achieved using reactive power compensation of the interface inverter. The results show the effectiveness of these approaches to avoid voltage variation and excessive tap setting movements of regulators and keep the voltage within the desired operating conditions.

“…Voltage sag means a decrease in the RMS voltage between 10% to 90% of the nominal voltage for the duration of a half-cycle to 1 min [24]. Thus, voltage sag can be categorized as instantaneous, momentary, and temporary [28].…”

“…However, the decision of using HVDC transmission lines is stressed by the fact that it is generally difficult to get permission and funds to build new overhead lines and/or substations and, although losses are low for HVDC transmission lines, there are added losses due to the Voltage Source Converter (VSC) components, which are typically difficult to quantify. The decision of using one type of transmission line or another (AC or DC) [85] is mostly based on the amount of reactive power generation and on the amount of Joule-based power losses, which depends on the transmission line length, transmission voltage and the rated power among other factors [78,80,82,[85][86][87][88][89][90][91]. Therefore, interconnections between the wind farm and the main electric system and interconnections between WTs within the wind farm must be planned with the aim of reducing reactive power generation, power losses and total costs.…”

This article presents a review of the state of the art of the Wind Farm Design and Optimization (WFDO) problem. The WFDO problem refers to a set of advanced planning actions needed to extremize the performance of wind farms, which may be composed of a few individual Wind Turbines (WTs) up to thousands of WTs. The WFDO problem has been investigated in different scenarios, with substantial differences in main objectives, modelling assumptions, constraints, and numerical solution methods. The aim of this paper is: (1) to present an exhaustive survey of the literature covering the full span of the subject, an analysis of the state-of-the-art models describing the performance of wind farms as well as its extensions, and the numerical approaches used to solve the problem; (2) to provide an overview of the available knowledge and recent progress in the application of such strategies to real onshore and offshore wind farms; and (3) to propose a comprehensive agenda for future research.

Among Renewable Energy Sources wind and solar energy are the most prominent and favorable substitutes to meet mankind’s future electricity requirements. Typically, these resources are combined in a distribution network to provide local distribution users. The amalgamation of these upgrades into the distribution network may modify the malfunction and network topologies, which may fail due to their pre-set state. Therefore, an advanced and accurate tracking device must continuously monitor topology changes, which is the Phasor Measuring Unit (PMU). This work proposes a new technique based on the Sea Lion Optimization Algorithm to determine the Optimal PMU Placements and its employment positions, i.e. the power structure is completely perceptible. In addition, the cost of system losses can be calculated with or without wind energy to achieve energy reserves. The energy losses before and after the wind turbine connection is compared to realize energy reserves. This comparison of energy reserves is made using Realistic and Stochastic platforms. Comparison and proposed formulas offered in the IEEE 15, 33, 69, and 85 bus distribution networks were explored to prove their effectiveness. Moreover, the proposed methodology produces more trusted results than those of other methods in the literature.
