Power system vulnerability is one new concept for power security as the extend of security in recent years. At present, the power system vulnerability research has obtained stage accomplishment. Meanwhile, the randomness and intermittence of the wind lead to the wind power output unsteady. It not only has a bad influence on the power system, but also makes wind farm vulnerability even more obvious. Based on this, vulnerability assessment is applied to large-scale wind farm in this paper. Vulnerability indexes of the bus in large-scale wind farm are put forward and prevention measures are also given and it will has reference meaning to the security enhance of both grid and wind farm.

In this paper, starting from the active network loss formulas and wind characteristics, it is pointed out the reactive power loss and reactive flow is the major impact of wind power integration on power system loss. The reactive power loss formulas of box-type transformer, main step-up transformer, wind farm collector line and connecting grid line are analyzed. Next the reactive power loss of transformer and transmission line is described in detail. Then put forward the loss reduction measures that installing SVC on the low voltage side of the main step-up transformer and making the doubly-fed wind generators send out some reactive power at an allowed power factor. Use the case of Gansu Qiaodong wind farm to verify the effectiveness of the proposed measures.

With large-scale wind power integrates into power system, the risk brought by the uncertainty of wind power output can no longer be neglected. Under this circumstance, the operation risk due to the uncertainty of wind generation and the contribution of wind power to energy conservation and emission reduction are quantified, and the corresponding quantified operational cost, environmental cost and operation risk are being integrated into the economic dispatching model to establish a multi-objective optimization dispatch model. Non-dual interior point method is used to solve the optimization problem. The method is applied to Hebei Southern power grid, simulated with actual wind power output data of one typical day. Simulation results show the rationality and effectiveness of the proposed method.

Abstract. Large-scale integration of renewable energy sources with power-electronic converters is pushing the power system closer to its dynamic stability limit. This has increased the risk of wide-area blackouts. Thus, the changing generation profile in the power system necessitates the use of alternate sources of energy such as wind power plants, to provide blackstart services in the future. This however, requires grid-forming and not the traditionally prevalent grid-following wind turbines. In this paper, four different grid-forming control strategies have been implemented in an HVDC-connected wind farm. A simulation study has been carried out to test the different control schemes for the different stages of energization of onshore load by the wind farm. Their transient behaviour during transformer inrush, converter pre-charge and de-blocking, and onshore block-load pickup, has been compared to demonstrate the blackstart capabilities of grid-forming wind power plants for early participation in power system restoration.

Modern wind turbine technology has been a great improvement over the past couple decades, leading to large scale wind power penetration. The increasing penetration of wind power resulted in emphasizing the importance of reliable and secure operation of power systems, especially in a weak power system. In this paper, the main wind turbine control schemes, the wind penetration levels and wind farm dynamic behavior for grid code compliance were investigated in the Penghu wind power system, a weak isolated power system.

The wind speed sequences at different spatial positions have a certain spatiotemporal coupling relationship. It is of great significance to analyze the clustering effect of the wind farm(s) and reduce the adverse impact of large-scale wind power integration if we can grasp this relationship at multiple scales. At present, the physical method cannot optimize the time-shifting characteristics in real time, and the research scope is concentrated on the wind farm. The statistical method cannot quantitatively describe the temporal relationship and the speed variation among wind speed sequences at different spatial positions. To solve the above problems, a quantification method of wind speed time-shifting characteristics based on wind process is proposed in this paper. Two evaluation indexes, the delay time and the decay speed, are presented to quantify the time-shifting characteristics. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified from the perspective of the correlation between wind speed sequences. The time-shifting characteristics of wind speed sequences under the wind farms scale and the wind turbines scale are studied, respectively. The results show that the proposed evaluation method can effectively achieve the quantitative analysis of time-shifting and could improve the results continuously according to the actual wind conditions. Besides, it is suitable for any spatial scale. The calculation results can be directly applied to the wind power system to help obtain the more accurate output of the wind farm.

In the condition of large scale wind power connection, the uncertain of the wind power output takes great challenge to the peak regulation. In this paper for some wind power connection system, the influence of wind power connection to the peak regulation was studied by analyzing the system load and the historical real data after the wind power connection. The computation model which evaluates the normal units’ anti- peak adjusting capability was built and the multiply integer program algorithm was used to solve this model. A real case was used to test the exactness and feasibility of the computation model.

A method of risk assessment considering weather impacts was proposed for power system with wind power. Firstly, the mechanism of the weather affecting the risk of power system is analyzed, and then the component reliability model based on weather was illustrated. The transmission line model takes into account of the situation that the line may pass through a variety of climatic zones. Secondly, combine the above-mentioned model with the existing risk assessment methods, a new method was obtained. By using of the modified IEEE-RTS79 system with wind power, the feasibility and reasonableness of the proposed model and approach are verified. The results show that it is necessary to consider weather especially when the system is integrated with large-scale wind power or the system passes through zones with particularly higher probability of bad weather. Compared with the existing risk assessment methods, the proposed method is more in line with the actual system, and the assessment results are more reasonable.

In order to study the small signal stability of power grid after grid-connection of large-scale Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG) wind farms, the mathematical model of PMSG was established. By means of simulation on a simple power system, the damping characteristics of grid under different wind power penetration and different access location of wind farms were studied in detail. Simulation results show that along with the increase of wind power, the inter-area oscillation mode damping would reduce. When wind farm was attached the receiving area, the inter-area oscillation mode damping was lower than it when wind farm was attached the supplying area.

Renewable Energy especially wind energy integration has attained profound growth across the worldwide power system. Wind energy integration at large scale comes up with the challenge on voltages and reactive power management at power system level. The research work presented in this paper has analyzed the impact of wind energy on reactive power reserve with special reference to Hebei Southern Power System. The maximum wind power integration capacity is calculated, and the effect of increasing wind power integration on voltage profiles is studied. Possible controls from system sides and its effects on wind power integration are explored. Study shows that with the increase of the wind power integration capacity, the intermittency and variation will bring more serious problems to the system frequency regulation, reserve service and voltage control. These problems also become the limiting factors for further increase of large-scale wind power integration. In order to make a better use of wind power resources in Heibei province and maintain system safety at the same time, further research should be performed on exploring the reactive and active power regulation and control of the wind farm and the methods to decrease the variability of wind farm outputs.
