Wind Turbine Design for a Hybrid System: with the emphasis on generation complementarity

The global issue on global warming leads nations to reduce their carbon emission, and one way to do it is by decarbonising the power system and employing higher penetration of renewable energy technology. However, due to the variable nature of renewable energy, their integration to the power system poses challenges to the utilities and system...

RTDS/RSCAD Type-3 Doubly-Fed Induction Wind Turbine Generator Model: Internship Report

In the future, it is expected that the European Power Grid will be integrated with several sources of renewable energy producers (mainly wind/solar), alternating their maximum/minimum production periods per year. All involved parts of the European Power System (generation and consumption units) will increasingly be connected to the network...

Impacts of Wind Integration on Power System Operating Costs & Security

As electricity demand increases and fossil fuels are depleted, renewable energy technologies are on the rise in order to keep up the supply of energy. Since wind power is the technology with the most promising for large-scale implementation, it becomes important to understand what wind power brings to system operation. Wind is by nature variable...
