A novel inverter control strategy to enhance the transient stability of grid-connected wind farm based on doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) is presented. Adding transient angle control strategy in the rotor side converter active control loop, this can dissipate the system unbalancing energy and restrain the system oscillations by the variation of wind turbine speed. Adding transient voltage control strategy in reactive control loop, this can provide fast reactive power compensation and support the restoration and reconstruction of the grid voltage when fault occurred. The control strategy which can improve the transient Angle stability and transient voltage stability at the same time is put forward. Finally, a testing system including a DFIG-based wind farm is realized using DigSILENT/Power Factory, the strategy validation and the contribution to power system stability enhancement are verified by simulation.

For the wind power grid voltage control problem, this paper proposed a reactive power and voltage control strategy by coordinate the wind farm reactive power source. Considering wind internal loss and the machine voltage deviation, established a optimal control model and a objective function, using the improved particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm to solve the function, the control strategy can reduce the wind internal loss and stabilize the voltage of the machine on the basis of meet the requirements of PCC voltage. The example simulation proved the effectiveness and economy of the control strategy.

This paper investigates the impact of wind generation consisting of doubly-fed induction generators (DFIG) on the system angle stability. 3 different factors are considered: the penetration level of wind generation, the connection location of wind generation and the reactive power control strategy that the DFIG utilizes. A modified IEEE-3 machine and 10 bus system has been used as the test network and a number of simulations have been conducted. It shows that the higher the penetration level of the DFIG-based wind generation, the better the system angle stability. Compared with unity power factor control strategy, the system stability is better when the DFIG utilizes constant voltage control strategy. Beside, different connection locations of wind generation also have effects on system stability.

Some faults will result wind turbine generators off-grid due to low grid voltage , furthermore, large-scale wind farms tripping can result in severe system oscillation and aggravate system transient instability . In view of this, static compensator (STATCOM) is installed in the grid containing large-scale wind farm. A voltage feedforward control strategy is proposed to adjust the reactive power of STATCOM compensation and ensure that the grid voltage is quickly restored to a safe range. The mathematical model of the doubly-fed induction wind generator (DFIG) is proposed. The control strategy of DFIG uses PI control for rotor angular velocity and active power. 4-machine system simulation results show that the STATCOM reactive power compensation significantly improve output active power of large-scale wind farm satisfying transient stability, reduce the probability of the tripping, and improve the utilization efficiency of wind farms.

Current control strategy of reactive power and voltage for wind power integration is separate control of single wind farm (WF), which cannot achieve the optimal allocation of reactive power and is not beneficial for the optimization of voltage stability and network loss. In this paper, a coordinated control strategy of reactive power and voltage for wind farm cluster is proposed, which takes the voltage stability at point of common coupling (PCC) and economic operation as the optimization goals. The coordinated control strategy is realized through the platform of Cybercontrol industrial configuration, and the application testing verifies the effectiveness of the proposed strategy.

Although the doubly-fed generator group has a flexible ability of reactive power regulation, when a fault occurs in the power system, the ability will be closed to saturation and we need to adopt measures to support network voltage. In this paper, the model of doubly-fed wind turbine、SVC and STATCOM will be given. And the paper will provide a control system of the two dynamic reactive power compensation devices respectively. By power system simulation software Matlab and combining a regional power grid of Mengdon, both SVC and STATCOM are applied to the wind farm and the paper will analyze the characteristics of network voltage. The simulative results show that both the SVC and STATCOM can help wind farm voltage rapidly reconstructed after the fault. In addition, the STATCOM can better improve the transient stability of the wind farm and the compensation effect of STATCOM is better than SVC.

This paper proposes a grouped, reactive power optimization control strategy to maximize the active power output of a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) based on a large wind farm (WF). Optimization problems are formulated based on established grouped loss models and the reactive power limits of the wind turbines (WTs). The WTs in the WF are grouped to relieve computational burden. The particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is applied to optimize the distribution of reactive power among groups, and a proportional control strategy is used to distribute the reactive power requirements in each group. Furthermore, the proposed control strategy optimizes the reactive power distribution between the stator and the grid side converter (GSC) in each WT. The proposed control strategy greatly reduces the number of variables for optimization, and increases the calculation speed of the algorithm. Thus, the control strategy can not only increase the active power output of the WF but also enable the WF to track the reactive power dispatching instruction of the power grid. A simulation of the DFIG WF is given to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy at different wind speeds and reactive power references.

The main causes of wind farms disconnection from the grid is the three-phase grid faults at the point common coupling (PCC) e.g. the voltage dip. The use of a Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) which is from the family of Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) devices can be used effectively in a wind park based on FSIG to provide transient voltage and to improve wind system stability. Due to the asynchronous operation nature, system instability of wind farms based on FSIG (Fixed Speed Induction Generator) is largely caused by the reactive power absorption by FSIG because due to the large rotor slip during grid fault. STATCOM contributes to control the grid voltage at PCC and maintain wind farm connection to the grid during some severe conditions of grid faults and used for power flow control and for damping power system oscillations. The evaluation of this control strategy using (STATCOM) is investigated in terms of regulation reactive power and transient stability of the wind farm during grid disturbances.
