This paper studies the interest of the integration of battery energy storage with Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) for improving the low voltage ride through capability (LVRT) of a fixed speed wind turbine connected to the grid. For this reason and by applying a grid fault, a comparison is made between integrating the SSSC, the STATCOM and the STATCOM with battery energy storage. The sy...

With the continuously increasing penetration of networked microgrids (MGs) on local utility grid (UG), MGs face challenge to avoid system fault currents during low-voltage ride-through (LVRT). To solve this challenge, an active current limitation (AFCL) method is proposed with three parts: 1) a novel phase angle adjustment (PAA) strategy conducted relieve impact output current; 2) injection (CI...

Voltage sags originating in ac supply systems can cause nuisance tripping of variable speed drives (VSDs) resulting in production loss and restarting delays. In ac VSDs having an uncontrolled rectifier front-end, the effects of voltage sags on the dc link causing dc under-voltage or ac overcurrent faults initiate the tripping. This paper suggests modifications in the control algorithm in order ...

Owing to the increasing penetration level of distributed energy resources (DER) and direct current (DC) load, usage low-voltage (LVDC) systems has expanded achieve efficient operations. However, because LVDC system reaches peak fault at a faster rate than alternating (AC) system, solution that protects components is necessary maintain integrity. It required by ride-through (LVRT) DERs their int...
