Network IEEE P 1547-2003 STANDARD • Influential standard for interconnection of all forms of DR is IEEE 1547-2003, Standard for Interconnecting Distributed Resources with Electric Power Systems. • IEEE 1547 is the result of a recent effort by SCC21 to develop a single interconnection standard that applies to all technologies. • IEEE 1547 addresses all types of interconnected generation up to 10 MW. • The 1547 standard has benefited greatly from earlier utility industry work documented in IEEE and IEC standards (ANSI- C37 series for protective relaying) RECENT CHANGES TO USA GRID CODE (AWEA): • Low voltage ride-through (LVRT) capability for wind plants and wind turbines: AWEA recommended adoption of an LVRT requirement developed by E.ON Netz. This is a German grid operator faced with a significant and growing penetration of asynchronous wind generation on the German grid. This standard requires that the machine stay connected for voltages at the terminals as low as 15% of nominal per unit for approximately 0.6 s. • Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) equipment for remote control: AWEA recommended the requirement of equipment to enable • • remote command and control for the limitation of maximum plant output during system emergency and system contingency events. Reactive power capability: AWEA recommended that wind plants connected to the transmission system be capable of operating over a power factor range of ±0.95. Current wind turbine simulation models: AWEA recommended that major stakeholders (TSOs and WT manuf.) participate in a formal process for developing, updating, and improving engineering models and turbine specifications used for modeling the wind plant interconnection. RECENT CHANGES TO UK GRID CODE The Grid Code incorporates the technical issues raised by the 3 Licensees with respect to the connection of windfarms: • Fault ride through: Requirement for generating units to revert to normal • • • • operation when a fault on the network is cleared. Power/frequency characteristics: Requirement for generating units to be able to deliver power & remain connected to the network when the system frequency deviates from 50Hz. Frequency control: Requirement for generating plants to be able to increase/decrease power output with falling or rising frequency. Reactive range and voltage control: Requirement for generating plant to be able to supply lagging/leading reactive power and control the voltage at the grid connection point. Negative phase sequence: The requirement for generating units to be able to withstand negative sequence currents caused by phase voltage unbalance and phase to phase faults. WFPS1.4 FAULT RIDE THROUGH REQUIREMENTS WFPS1.4.1 A Wind Farm Power Station shall remain connected to the Transmission System for Transmission System Voltage dips on any or all phases, where the Transmission System Voltage measured at the HV terminals of the Grid Connected Transformer remains above the heavy black line in Figure WFPS1.1. Connection process overview PROJECT PLANNING PHASE INFORMATION PHASE DESIGN PHASE CONSTRUCTION PHASE TESTING & COMMISSIONING PHASE CATEGORIES OF WIND PLANTS • BULK WIND PLANTS: Consist of large wind farms connected to the Transmission System (USA) • DISTRIBUTED WIND PLANTS: refers to single Turbines / small groups of turbines dispersed along Distribution System (popular in Europe , Caribbean ) WIND TURBINE CATEGORIES WT divided into two categories which define their electrical characteristics • FIXED SPEED DEVICES – Simple & Cheap • VARIABLE SPEED DEVICES – Power Electronic Interface to Grid • M/C RATINGS FROM 600 KW – 1.5 MW WIND TURBINE TECHNOLOGY • • FIXED SPEED FSIG: Standard squirrel-cage induction generator connected directly to the grid: • These machines have a gearbox to match the rotational speed of blades with that of the generator. Mechanical power may be regulated through an inherent aerodynamic stall characteristic of blades or with active control of blade pitch. WRIG: Wound-rotor induction generator with variable rotor resistance: These machines have a gearbox for coupling an electrical generator to a turbine hub. They also have pitch control of blades for maximizing energy capture and controlling turbine speed within range of the generator and a small range of variable speed operation (e.g., 10% of generator synchronous speed). • VARIABLE SPEED DFIG: Doubly fed asynchronous generator: These are essentially wound rotor induction machines with variable frequency excitation of the rotor circuit, incorporating rotor current control via power converter. The rotor circuit power converter may be four-quadrant, allowing independent control of real and reactive flow in either direction (rotor to grid or grid to rotor), or unidirectional real power flow (grid to rotor). These machines have a gearbox for coupling the generator shaft to turbine hub, active control of turbine blade pitch for maximizing production and controlling mechanical speed, and variable speed operation depending on the rating of power converter relative to turbine rating (e.g., ±30% of generator synchronous speed). Synchronous or induction generator with full-size power converter: In these machines, the generator is coupled to the grid through a fully rated ac/dc/ac power converter. They also have a gearbox to match generator speed to variable rotational speed of blades and variable speed operation over a wide range, depending on electrical generator characteristics. CAPACITY FACTORS • The Declared Net Capacity (DNC) of a generation • • • • scheme is a measure of the expected average power output of the generation scheme. DNC = (RATED POWER OUTPUT– POWER CONSUMED BY PLANT) X CF Capacity factor for wave energy schemes = 0.33 Capacity factor for wind energy schemes = 0.43 Capacity factor for other types of C-2 generation schemes = 1.00 POW. SYS. ANALYSIS FOR DISTRIBUTED WIND: • Voltage Regulation • POWER QUALITY- FLICKER, HARMONICS • Short Circuit Contribution Pow. Sys. Analysis Issues for Bulk Wind include: • Var Support • Capacity Constraints • Stability • Reserve Capacity Requirements Factors Impacting System Voltage • Local Wind Profile (Speed, Turbulence, Shear) • Size of Wind Turbine to Short Circuit ratio • X/R Ratio of system • Type of WTG and associated Reactive Power Control • Loading on Distribution Feeder VOLTAGE REGULATION: • Commercial WTG employ Reactive Compensation • Variable Speed Gen. use Static Var. Control to adjust current phase angle • Fixed and semi variable speed IG use switched capacitor banks • Need to Coordinate with other Voltage Reg. devices e.g. Regulator/switched Caps. POWER QUALITY • VOLTAGE FLICKER - Refers to the rapid • • • • variations in voltage levels within a certain Mag. and Freq. range Synonymous with light or lamp flicker Arises due to abrupt changes in WT Pow. O/PWind Gusting & Variable Dynamic behaviour Fluctuations at freq. close to 8 Hz cause most annoyance Occurs on weak systems with low X/R ratio VOLTAGE FLICKER IMPACT • Peculiar to Fixed speed devices • Variable speed WT less likely to cause flicker • Wind farm with several turbines less likely to cause flicker as variations of Pow. O/P tend to cancel out. CAUSES OF FLICKER BY WTG • Blade passing of tower results in oscillations • Variations of wind speed • Switching operations- startup & shutdown • Recommended limits on flicker in Dist. Networks addressed in IEC 61400.21 SHORT CIRCUIT CONTRIBUTION • For WTG in 600 kw - 1.3 MW range must consider Fault Contribution • 80-90% of Dist faults are SLG which cause m/c to receive normal excitation voltage • For voltage > 60% treat IG as Synch. m/c. (Rule of thumb by W. Feero) • Obtain Static Ind. m/c model – more accurate NETWORK EFFECT OF GEN. TECH.

BANKS – Large Cap banks located at interconnection Sub. • STATCOM – FACTS devices that use voltage source converters to provide reactive current. POWER SYSTEM STABILITY • Full Assessment of Network performance requires study of STEADY STATE and TRANSIENT STABILITY operation • Characteristics of WTG must not compromise the stability of Power System following CONTINGENCY DEFINITION OF STABILITY • STEADY STATE STABILITY - Ability of Pow. Sys. to remain stable after a small disturbance e.g load disturbance, switching • TRANSIENT STABILITY – ability of Pow. Sys. to maintain synchronism after a severe transient disturbance. E.g. Short Circuits, loss of load or Gen. PURPOSE OF TRANS. STAB. STUDY • TO PREDICT ABILITY OF GEN. TO RECOVER AND REMAIN CONNECTED TO POWER SYSTEM AFTER A FAULT • TO ASSESS INTERACTION OF GENS. AND OTHER ROTATING PLANT (WTG) CONNECTED TO NETWORK AFTER FAULT • TO ENSURE MINIMUM VOLTAGE DISTURBANCE DUE TO LOSS OF SYNCHRONISM SMALL SIGNAL STABILITY Two forms of Instability occur under these conditions: • Steady Increase in Rotor Angle due to lack of sufficient Synchronising Torque • Rotor oscillations of increasing amplitude due to lack of sufficient damping torque TRANSIENT STABILITY CONSIDERATIONS • In large complex power systems Transient instability may not always occur as first Swing Instability, but may be due to superposition of several modes of oscillations. • Analysing TS - the study period is 3-5 secs. after disturbance. May be extended to 10 secs. or more.
