Operating Voltage and Frequency Regime Validation of Grid Code Requirements in South Africa

open access: yesInternational Transactions on Electrical Energy Systems, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
South Africa first implemented rolling blackouts known as load shedding to protect the integrity and maintain stability of their ailing electrical grid over a decade ago. Since then, load shedding has become a daily occurrence, which South Africa plans to alleviate through the addition of grid‐connected renewable generation.

A novel control technique for on‐load tap changer to enlarge the reactive power capability of wind power plants

open access: yesIET Generation, Transmission &Distribution, Volume 16, Issue 14, Page 2928-2938, July 2022., 2022
Abstract This paper suggests a new control algorithm for On‐Load Tap Changer (OLTC) of wind farm main transformer that is responsible for voltage regulation of collector network. The conventional control scheme adjusts the voltage of LV side of transformer without considering the wind turbine voltages.

STATCOM Controller Tuning to Enhance LVRT Capability of Grid‐Connected Wind Power Generating Plants

open access: yesJournal of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
This paper investigates the utilization of a STATCOM to enhance the LVRT capability of wind power plants (WPPs) during grid faults. The STATCOM under investigation is tuned using the Water Cycle Algorithm (WCA), Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), and a hybrid algorithm of both WCA and PSO. Simulations are conducted in MATLAB programming software, using

Synergetic Control Strategy of Front‐End Speed Regulation Wind Turbine (FESRWT) for Fault Ride through

open access: yesMathematical Problems in Engineering, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
A synergetic control method is proposed to improve the fault ride through capability of front‐end speed regulation wind turbine (FESRWT). In case of three‐phase short‐circuit fault and single‐phase grounding fault, this method can accelerate the attenuation of stator flux transient component and restrain the fluctuation of rotor speed, make generator ...

An Enhanced Control Procedure for that DVR to accomplish both LVRT and HVRT in the DFIG Wind Turbine

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Conference Series, 2022
Abstract In general, Double Fed Induction Generator DFIG-driven wind turbines are extremely sensitive to fluctuations in the grid voltage. For enhancing DFIG wind turbines, this paper proposes an improved procedure for controlling Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) to simultaneously perform both Low Voltage Ride Through (LVRT) and High ...
