CHARACTERISTICS OF WIND POWER SYSTEMS
- The generation source uses wind turbines and power converters (Converters).
- Generated power varies continuously according to wind conditions.
- Turbines are often located far from step-up substations and connected through large-scale internal collector grids.
- The point of common coupling (PCC) is located far from the turbines and the point of power generation.
- Underground cable systems have high capacitance, increasing the risk of resonance.
What Makes the System Difficult to Control?
GENERATED POWER VARIES WITH WIND SPEED
Causes voltage, current, and other power quality indicators to change unpredictably.
01
RISK OF RESONANCE IN THE SYSTEM
Turbines are often distributed far apart, operating unstably, and the complex collector system increases the risk of resonance.
02
GRID CONDITIONS ARE CONSTANTLY CHANGING
Directly affects power quality at the point of common coupling.
03
LIMITATIONS IN POWER QUALITY MEASUREMENT
Current transformers may not accurately reflect harmonic components, making power quality assessment and control more difficult.
04
Power Quality Risks That Are Often Not Visible
01
Risk of Harmonic Resonance
02
Difficulty Detecting Resonance and High-Frequency Components Through CVTs
03
Failure to Meet Power Quality Requirements for COD
