Stability Augmentation of a Grid-connected Wind Farm / Edition 1

by S. M. Muyeen, Junji Tamura, Toshiaki Murata

Overview

“Stability Augmentation of a Grid-connected Wind Farm” introduces a comprehensive approach to stabilizing the power output from wind farms, covering both fixed and variable speed wind turbine generator systems. The book presents the different tools suitable for application in wind farms, together with modeling and control strategies. The book reports on output power and terminal voltage fluctuation minimization, using the integration of energy storage systems with power electronic converters. Transient stability enhancement of the power systems is also discussed. “Stability Augmentation of a Grid-connected Wind Farm” provides advanced tools with detailed modeling and controller design, including extensive simulation results.
