Abstract:The stability and security of small and isolated power systems can be compromised when large amounts of wind power enter them. Wind power integration depends on such factors as power generation capacity, conventional generation technology or grid topology. Another issue that can be considered is critical clearing time (CCT). In this paper, wind power and CCT are studied in a small isolated power system. Two types of wind turbines are considered: a squirrel cage induction generator (SCIG) and a full converter. Moreover, the full converter wind turbine's inertia emulation capability is considered, and its impact on CCT is discussed. Voltage is taken into account because of its importance in power systems of this kind. The study focuses on the small, isolated Lanzarote-Fuerteventura power system, which is expected to be in operation by 2020.

“…Scientific literature covers numerous papers, such as [3][4][5], referring to the types of wind turbines generators (WTGs) installed in power grids. The majority of WPPs installed in Romania have the known type 3 WTGs-DFAG, but the biggest WPP has type 4 WTGs -SG Full Converter.…”

The paper describes wind power plants hierarchical control systems operation, and shows simulation results. The operation principle of the voltage regulation systems will be presented and the main factors on which regulator actions depend (reactive power reserve, wind speed, number of turbines in operation) also the procedure used by the National Control Centre will be described. Studies were made with a Eurostag modeled version of the secondary voltage control system from Tariverde wind power plant connection substation. Using the National Power System Eurostag database various operation scenarios were simulated to show the impact in the transmission power grid.

Ochoa, Member, IEEE, Andrew Keane, Member, IEEE, and Gareth P. Harrison, Member, IEEE E substation with capacitors or static var compensators, the corresponding investment would potentially have to be borne by the DNO. A less capital intensive solution would be to make use of the significant reactive power capabilities of DG plants already required by connection codes [10]. This paper is focused on the benefits that better use of the reactive power capabilities of DG units can deliver to distribution and transmission systems.…”
