Wind energy converters with FACTS Capabilities for optimized integration of wind power into transmission and distribution systems

摘要: In a lot of power systems renewable energies and especially wind are main drivers for the actual restructuring transmission distribution systems. Enhanced exchange capabilities over long distances will be one necessary system characteristics in order to achieve higher penetration level power. Distribution change from pure load distributed “virtual” plants. Therefore must also participate maintaining quality supply, security stability. Robust fault-ride-through performances, voltage control management active reactive flows typical tasks resolved. Today, energy converters not only offer plant similar conventional generators but may exceed their performance various aspects. FACTS-like performances can provided by ENERCON (WECs) due full scale inverter system. Field tested validated latest converters, associated data models address most advanced grid codes. For normal stressed conditions WECs with FACTS Capabilities provide STATCOMlike without need an external costly device. Flexible setting options allow optimisation specific needs Measurements field validation dynamic studies have been carried out ENERCON. These test results show very good accuracy between simulations based on these measurements converter. lead win-win-situation farm operator minimize integration costs Furthermore strongly support further increase connected help resolve questions optimized
