چکیده

This paper investigates the impacts of a wind farm connected at Harterbeespoort substation in South Africa on voltage stability of the power network. The site wind speed was determined and analyzed for viability. A comparison is made between the use of Doubly-Fed Induction Generators and Self-excited Induction Generators driven by the wind turbines. The resulting P-V and Q-V curves from load flow studies are presented and analyzed. The models for this study were implemented in DigSILENT PowerFactory.

Optimal Coordinated Voltage Control in Distribution Networks in presence of Solar and Wind Power Plants Considering Uncertainties

Abstract: In the last decade, the amount of distributed generation connected to the distribution network is increasing. The presence of distributed generation resources in distribution systems has a great influence on its behavior and it is necessary to consider the impact of these resources on the distribution network design. In this study, Optimal Coordinated Voltage Control (OCVC) using wind...

Applications of Control Theory in Modern Power Systems - A Tutorial

Secure and reliable operation of complex interactive power networks poses significant theoretical and practical challenges in analysis, modeling, simulation, prediction, control, and optimization. In addition, mathematical models of such interactive systems are typically vague (or may not even exist); moreover, existing and classical methods of solution are either unavailable, or are not suffic...
