STATCOM for Improved Dynamic Performance of Wind Farms in Power Grid

Journal Title: International Journal of Modern Engineering Research (IJMER) - Year 2014, Vol 4, Issue 5

Abstract

 Application of FACTS controller called Static Synchronous Compensator STATCOM to improve the performance of power grid with Wind Farms is investigated .The essential feature of the STATCOM is that it has the ability to absorb or inject the reactive power with power grid. Therefore, the voltage regulation of the power grid with STATCOM FACTS device is achieved. Moreover restoring the stability of the power system having wind farm after occurring severe disturbance such as faults or wind farm mechanical power variation is obtained with STATCOM controller. The dynamic model of the power system having wind farm controlled by proposed STATCOM is developed. To validate the powerful of the STATCOM FACTS controller, the studied power system is simulated and subjected to different severe disturbances. The results prove the effectiveness of the proposed STATCOM controller in terms of fast damping the power system oscillations and restoring the power system stability
