AbstractThe ever-growing demand for energy sources of low environmental impact has given a greater importance to wind farms in many countries. However, due to operational characteristics of these complexes, which are reflected into a variability of the energy produced and in the use of power electronic converters, the interaction between wind power plants and electrical networks shows itself to be an area of high investigative interest. In fact, among the various phenomena that exist, steady state voltage variations constitute a theme that is under the constant attention of electrical system operators. In this context, the present article is directed toward the analysis of a voltage regulation strategy aimed at wind power generation systems composed by synchronous machines and full converters. Once established the methodology that lead to an ancillary operation of the wind farm, the authors present results of computational simulations on ATP/EMTP platform that attest to the efficiency of the strategy.

<p class="Default">Nowadays, the use of the wind energy has known an important increase because it is clean and cheap. However, many technical issues could occur due to the integration of wind power plants into power grids. As a result, many countries have published grid code requirements that new installed wind turbines have to satisfy in order to facilitate its intergration to electrical networks. Among those requirements, the wind farms must be able to participate to ancillary services for instance voltage regulation and reactive power control. Nevertheless, in case of small wind farms having not the necessary reactive power capability to contribute to reactive power support, Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS) devices could also be used to participate to reactive power support. In this paper, an optimization method based on particle swarm optimization (PSO) technique is presented. This method allows getting the optimal location and reactive power injection of both wind power plants (WPP) and synchronous var compensators (SVC) with the objective to improve the voltage profile and to minimize the active power losses. The IEEE 14 bus system and a 20 MW wind farm based doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) are used to validate the proposed algorithm. The simulation results are analysed and compared.</p>

A new coronavirus pandemic is raging all over the world, especially in densely populated areas. Unlike most countries, more than half of the territory of Russia is not used by humans — which means that it is possible to settle large cities to avoid crowding people on a small area. The authors of the article consider wind power, namely vortex wind power plants, as a new source of energy that can be quickly and with less harm built in rural areas. The article also discusses the possibilities of an alternative Autonomous non-volatile installation "Air spring" for obtaining fresh water from atmospheric air.
