THE IMPACT OF A WIND POWER PLANT WITH DOUBLY FED INDUCTION GENERATOR ON THE POWER SYSTEMS

Abstract

: In this paper the effect of the wind power plants with Double Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) on the electric power system operation is investigated. The important characteristics such as: voltage quality, grid voltage stability, active and reactive loss of a DFIG at different fault conditions are studied. The simulation results clealy show the effect of the wind power plants on the grid voltage stability and power quality of electric power system.
