Variability of power generation from intermittent resources such as wind and solar plants presents an operational challenge for grid operators. The economic incentives and technical challenges that accompany large amounts of variable generation in island power systems are often much greater. The Hawaiian Electric Company and its subsidiaries, the Maui Electric Company and the Hawaii Electric Light...
Current methods in which maximum sizes of new wind farms are determined do not take into consideration their impact on future wind penetration levels. In this paper, two methods are proposed to determine maximum sizes of multiple new wind farms for maximizing wind penetration levels. In both methods, each new wind farm size is determined using an iterative process where each wind farm's size is incremented...
This article compares the behaviour of different order models, for large scale wind farms comprising doubly fed induction generators (DFIGs). While it is important to have a model which is detailed enough that all interesting phenomena can be examined, it is also important to have simple models, not only to reduce computation time, but also to simplify the design of controllers. This article compares...
In this paper, the doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) for transient stability evaluations of power systems was systematically discussed, and the impacts of grid-connected large DFIG based wind farms on power system transient stability were then studied in detail. In the modeling of DFIG, an equivalent generator model was employed to reflect the combined behavior of the DFIG and its rotor converter...
This paper investigates the dynamic stability of a power system distribution network integrating variable speed wind generation based on a bifurcation analysis. A generalized model of the system is developed taking into account multiple wind farms, transformer branches and composite dynamic load model. Bifurcations may be analyzed by a systematic testing of the complete system Jacobian matrix. Considering...
In this paper we present a module-based modeling of electricity infrastructure with special emphasis on the wind energy integration. Each (group of) wind generator(s) is defined as a module and is represented in terms of its local variables and the interconnection variables between the module and the system network. Therefore, it is possible to specify the performance sub-objectives of each module...
