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...

Power-angle modulation controller to support transient stability of power systems dominated by power electronic interfacedwind generation

During the last few years, electric power systems have undergone a widespread shift from conventional fossil-based generation toward renewable energy-based generation. Variable speed wind generators utilizing full-scale power electronics converters are becoming the preferred technology among other types of renewable-based generation, due to...

Transient stability performance of power systems with high share of wind generators equipped with power-angle modulation controllers or fast local voltage controllers

The decommissioning of synchronous generators, and their replacement by decoupled renewable power plants, has a significant impact on the transient stability performance of a power system. This paper concerns with an investigation of the degree of transient stability enhancement that can be achieved in power systems with high shares (e.g.,...

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...
