Increasing Grid Integration of Wind Energy by using Ampacity Techniques

Power Quality Improvement in Wind Energy system by using STATCOM on Integration to the Grid

Renewable energy sources are alternative energy source, can bring new challenges when it is connected to the power grid. Generated power from wind energy system is always fluctuating due to the fluctuations in the wind. According to the guidelines specified in IEC61400 standard (International Electro-technical Commission) provides some norms and measurements. The performance of the wind turbine...

Multi Objective Scheduling of Utility-scale Energy Storages and Demand Response Programs Portfolio for Grid Integration of Wind Power

Increasing the penetration of variable wind generation in power systems has created some new challenges in the power system operation. In such a situation, the inclusion of flexible resources which have the potential of facilitating wind power integration is necessary. Demand response (DR) programs and emerging utility-scale energy storages (ESs) are known as two powerful flexible tools that ca...

Wind Energy-grid Stabilization Using a Dynamic Filter Compensator

Economic electric energy generation using wind energy production has been rapidly growing for the last three decades. However, the integration of a large wind scheme can pose inherent voltage instability and power quality problems. The paper presents the impact of a Novel Dynamic FACTS Compensator Scheme DFCS developed by the Second Author on voltage level stabilization and power quality enhanc...

Grid Integration of Hybrid Energy Sources Using Multilevel Inverter

Multilevel inverter technology has emerged recently as a very important alternative in the area of high-power mediumvoltage energy control. This paper presents the most important topologies like diode-clamped inverter (neutral-point clamped), capacitor-clamped (flying capacitor), and cascaded multicell with separate dc sources. Emerging topologies like asymmetric hybrid cells and soft-switched ...
