As the number of doubly fed induction generator (DFIG)- based wind-turbine systems continues to increase, wind turbines are required to provide Low Voltage Ride-Through (LVRT) capability, especially under the condition of grid voltage dips. This paper, depending on the operating characteristics of doubly-fed induction generator during grid faults ,deals with a protection and control strategy on rotor-side converter (RSC) to enhance the low voltage ride through capability of a wind turbine driven doubly fed induction generator (DFIG). The simulation and experiment studies demonstrate the correctness of the developed model and the effectiveness of the control strategy for DFIG-based wind-turbine systems under such adverse grid conditions.

Combined impact of environmental issues and policies of utilities has led to generation of clean and sustainable energy. Solar and wind energies are prominent and can provide bulk amount of electrical energy. Vast number of resources and more electrical energy density are attractive features of wind energy. Generation of bulk amount of wind energy especially offshore wind energy is attracting utilities to incline towards wind energy. Variable speed wind energy conversion systems employing Doubly fed induction generators offers several advantages such as maximum power generation and independent control of active and reactive powers. Doubly fed induction generator-based wind energy system became the first choice of power system operators due to its low-cost power electronic convertors. Stringent grid codes adopted by various countries made Low voltage ride through a serious problem for electric utilities as well as DFIG manufacturers. Many researchers tried to address the problem of low voltage ride through. In initial stages, crowbar circuits were used. Later Low voltage ride through was addressed using additional hardware such as STATCOM. Artificial intelligent controllers were used to minimize the effect of ride through. A comprehensive review, of different issues allied with low voltage ride through of doubly fed induction generator-based wind energy conversion system is presented in this article.


Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) based wind Energy System are very sensitive to grid disturbance such as Symmetrical voltage sag. In this paper the authors propose a new method for application of Dynamic Voltage Restorer for enhancing the low voltage ride through capability of wind turbine driven Doubly Fed Induction Generator.
