Wind energy known as a cheap, clean and uncontrolled resource and becomes an important green electricity source. However, installation of wind system into an electric grid introduces the Power Quality (PQ) phenomenon. These poses great challenges leads to various control schemes and new techniques to mitigate the PQ events. This paper described the improvement of PQ events in a grid connected wind energy system by using Static Compensator (STATCOM) with a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) at the Point of Common Coupling (PCC). The performance of the proposed wind energy system is simulated via MATLAB/SIMULINK in power system block set.
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.
