Real-time EMT Simulation Based Comparative Performance Analysis of Control Strategies for Wind Turbine Type 4 to Support Transient Stability

Power System Stability is a major domain of renewed interest for electrical power system researchers worldwide. Among the different stability classification domains, large disturbance rotor angle (transient) stability studies are of high concern due to the decommissioning of conventional power plants which leads to a dramatic decrease of inertia...

Evaluation of Phase Imbalance Compensation for Mitigating DFIG-Series Capacitor Interaction

This paper assesses the suitability of the phase imbalance concept as an alternative approach for series compensating a transmission line, with the goal to eliminate adverse subsynchronous interactions between a DFIG and the transmission system. The performance of this concept, under a predefined degree of asymmetry, is compared with the...

Implementation and Performance Assessment of Fast Active Power Injection Method for Type 4 Wind Turbine based on Real-time Simulation

This paper deals with the implementation of a Fast Active Power Injection (FAPI) controller in a Type-4 Wind Turbine. Two different FAPI controllers, droop-based and a modified derivative-based controller are proposed and investigated under real-time simulation platform. The implementation is done in a Real-Time Digital Simulator (RTDS) by...

Parametric Evaluation of Different ANN Architectures: Forecasting Wind Power Across Different Time Horizons

The participation of volatile wind energy resources in the generation mix of power systems is increasing. It is therefore becoming more and more crucial for system operators to accurately predict the wind power generation across different short term horizons (5 to 60 minutes ahead) in order to adequately balance the system and maintain system...
