Wind energy known as a cheap, clean and uncontrolled resource and becomes an important green electricity source. However, installation of wind system into an electric grid introduces the Power Quality (PQ) phenomenon. These poses great challenges leads to various control schemes and new techniques to mitigate the PQ events. This paper described the improvement of PQ events in a grid connected wind energy system by using Static Compensator (STATCOM) with a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) at the Point of Common Coupling (PCC). The performance of the proposed wind energy system is simulated via MATLAB/SIMULINK in power system block set.

Renewable energy sources provide the additional/satisfy the power to the consumer through power electronics interfaces and integrated with the grid. In grid integration power quality is one of the important parameter that need to be paying more attention. This proposed work focuses on power quality issues in a grid connected renewable energy system. Power quality issues will arises due to many factors here with the by introducing a fault condition in a grid connected renewable energy system the measurements were made at the point of common coupling and the mitigation is done with the help of a dynamic voltage restorer. The dynamic voltage restorer is a device which offers series compensation activated by neural network based controller. The sag improvement and the total harmonic assessment were made at the point of common coupling. Keywords: Neural network, Point of common coupling, Renewable energy source, Power quality, Dynamic voltage restorer ,electric grid.

Wind energy system is lately receiving a lot of attention, because they are cost inexpensive, environmental safe and clean renewable energy source, as compared with nuclear and fossil fuel power generation. The operational characteristics of wind electric turbines has considerable dissatisfaction and stress on the quality of electric power system. Harmonics, variations of voltage and reactive power are most of power quality issues for grid connected with wind turbine. This paper introduces a design and simulation of unified power quality conditioner using a fuzzy controller to improve the power quality for Egyptian power grid connected to Zafarana Egypt wind system. The proposed performance of the unified power quality conditioner system is verified by simulating the model using MATLAB/SIMULINK environment. The simulation results showed that the proposed unified power quality conditioner provide efficient cancellation of both load current  harmonics  and supply voltage sag in addition to compensation of reactive power, and thus making the electrical grid connected wind energy system more efficient by improving the quality of power.
