A New Concept for Power Grid Stabilization Using a Motor-Assisted Variable Speed Gas Turbine System

Abstract: As the penetration ratio of renewable energy sources becomes larger, the fluctuations of grid load also become larger and larger because of the intermittent generation of wind power and photovoltaic power. These fluctuations cause instability of voltage and frequency in the power grid. Recently, there has been considerable research into solving these challenges, leading to development such as batteries, flywheels, and improved flexibility of thermal power plants. The batteries and the flywheels … Show more

“…There is the well-known problem of gas turbines that their output decreases substantially when the ambient temperature is high. In accordance with our gas turbine simulation results, assisting by motor drive, which has about 5-10 % of the rated power of the gas turbine motor capacity, can improve the output power at high ambient temperature [6]. The capacity of additional power electronic devices required in MAGT can be smaller than that of a variable-speed gas turbine which is composed of a single-shaft 50/60 Hz gas turbine, full-sized variable-speed generator and converter.…”
