The dynamics governing power systems are being modified by the continued increase in the installation of wind turbine-generators (WTGs). This paper presents a small-signal analysis on the impact of the power electronic interface of large quantities of wind generation have on the inter-area oscillation of a two-area system. In particular the sensitivity of this inter-area mode with respect to: (i)...
The power electronic grid interface of converter-based energy systems such as wind turbine-generators (WTGs) is modifying the dynamics governing power systems. For a fundamental understanding of the impact of power electronic interface on the electromechanical modes, that is, the synchronizing and damping torque on synchronous machines, this paper provides a small-signal analysis about the impact...
This paper presents the validation method and results of a second generation Type 3 generic wind turbine model for dynamic voltage regulation and reactive power control. A staged field test at the wind farm point of interconnection was conducted and the measured response is compared with the second generation generic model as well as the first generation generic model and the GE-specific model. The...
The increase in wind generation levels in power system around the world and the fact that this type of generation interacts differently with the power network has made it necessary to study in detail the effects of its integration into the grid. In order to perform advanced study of the impact of wind energy, this research has implemented dynamic models of Wind Turbine Generator models of Type-3 (DFAG)...
The need for generic, standard, non-proprietary models for wind power plants continues to be the subject of much discussion and debate. From a technical point of view, the representation of the often complex dynamic behavior of modern wind power plants is not trivial. However, system planners and compliance organizations continue to struggle with the process deficiencies associated with the black-box...
GE Energy has an ongoing effort dedicated to the development of models of GE wind turbine generators (WTG) suitable for representing wind plants in system impact studies. This paper documents the present recommendations for dynamic modeling of GE wind plants using either Doubly Fed Asynchronous Generators (DFAG) or Full Conversion (FC) technology. This includes GE's 1.5 and 1.6 MW, as well as 2.5...
This paper summarizes work performed by the WECC Wind Generation Modeling Group and the IEEE Working Group on Dynamic Performance of Wind Power Generation regarding generic Wind Turbine Generator models, their development, and specifications.
The feasibility of automating the identification of electromechanical models based on well-established procedures is investigated. The software environment to perform the modal identification is described and representative results are discussed.
This paper describes the current status of the work being conducted by the Western Electricity Coordinating Council (WECC) SVC Task Force to develop generic power flow and time-domain stability models to represent all existing and future (modern) static Var systems (SVS) in the Western Interconnection. The intent is to have these models implemented by software vendors such as GE, Siemens PTI, Powertech...
The 11 papers in this special section focus on wind energy. The objective of the section is to provide a wide perspective on different aspects associated with wind power as it relates to power system engineering, with an emphasis on dynamic modeling and simulation.
This paper addresses some of the most significant challenges for wind generation facilities, including voltage control, reactive power management, dynamic power-swing stability, and behavior following disturbances in the power grid. This advanced hierarchical control of both real and reactive power output can provide dynamic performance that is, superior to that achievable with modern conventional...
