This paper investigates an integration of Offshore Wind Farm Plants with Power Grid Based on an HVDC line Interconnection. Large offshore wind farms are installed in the North Sea area using modern multi-megawatt wind turbines. The Voltage source converter - high voltage direct current VSC-HVDC is a suitable means of integrating such large and distant offshore Wind Power Plants (WPP) which need long submarine cable transmission to the onshore grid. The offshore network then becomes very different from the conventional grid, in that it is only connected to electronic power converters. A wind farm model with VSC-HVDC connection is developed. This work presents the modeling and simulation of such a system. The dynamic study of system performance under the fluctuations of wind energy and wind speed was studied to demonstrate the effectiveness of the control strategy. The validity of the proposed control technique is verified by Matlab/Simulink. Simulation results presented in this paper confirm the validity and feasibility of the proposed control approach, and can be tested on experimental setup.

Future Electrical Generator Technologies for Offshore Wind Turbines Keysan, Ozan (2015-01-01) In this article, different electric generator topologies for offshore wind turbines will be reviewed. Although, the most common generator type used in the onshore wind turbines is the doubly-fed induction generator, different generator designs are proposed for large offshore wind turbines, which operate in harsher conditions and are difficult to maintain. Some of these designs are direct-drive permanent magnet generators, hydraulic power take-off systems and superconducting generators.
Experimental study on power curtailment of three in-line turbines Bartl, Jan; Ostovan, Yasar; Uzol, Oğuz; Saetran, Lars (Elsevier BV; Elsevier BV; 2017-01-20) A dataset of wind tunnel power and wake flow measurements on a setup of three aligned model wind turbines is presented. The power outputs of the three turbines are in good agreement with measurements from a full-scale wind farm of similar inter-turbine spacing. A comparison of the wake flow behind the first row and the second row shows a significantly higher mean velocity loss behind the second row justifying a further power drop from the second to the third row turbine. Curtailing the front row turbine to ...
Control Strategy of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator for Stand Alone Wind Power Generation System Lachguer, Nora; Tahar Lamchich, Moulay (2011-09-10) This paper presents the control strategy of the permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) for stand-alone wind power generation system with battery energy storage management during wind speed and load variations. The complete system includes a PMSG connected to the load through a fully controlled back to back PWM converter and an intermediate DC link capacitor which is connected to a battery energy storage system through a bidirectional dc-dc converter. The control strategy to a stand-alone wind convers...
Adaptation of Renewable Based Power Plants to the Energy Market Using Battery Energy Storage Systems Durna, E.; Parlak, D.; Logoglu, E. Uz; Gercek, C. O. (2014-10-22) This paper presents a method for the adaptation of a wind power plant to the energy market using battery energy storage systems (BESS) to show the feasibility of using fast-response batteries, and to calculate its payback period. The proposed method is also used to investigate the optimum battery size according to the installed capacity of the wind farm based on the price and wind forecast, and arbitrage opportunity so as to maximize the profit of the investor. The profit obtained from the market by the bat...
Modeling and investigation of fault ride through capability of variable speed wind turbines Koç, Erkan; Güven, Ali Nezih; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2010) Technological improvements on wind energy systems with governmental supports have increased the penetration level of wind power into the grid in recent years. The high level of penetration forces the wind turbines stay connected to the grid during the disturbances in order to enhance system stability. Moreover, power system operators must revise their grid codes in parallel with these developments. This work is devoted to the modeling of variable speed wind turbines and the investigation of fault ride troug...
