Special Lecture on
"Wind Power into Power Systems: Integration Issues"
Wind energy systems have seen substantial growth
around the world, especially in Europe. This growth
has led to a rapid change in the generation
landscape because of the increasing penetration of
wind energy in utility systems. These fundamental
changes require the power grid to become more
vibrant and interactive which will demand
significant changes in grid operation, protection,
and control. This seminar provides a comprehensive
overview about issues related to the integration of
wind power into power system and its impact over the
performance.
Outline:
I.Brief Introduction of Wind Power into Power
Systems,
II. Wind Turbine Technologies Commercially
Available: Fixed-Speed, Variable-Speed
III. Electric Generators used on Wind Power:
(a) Single Cage Induction Machines,
(b) Double Fed Induction Machine,
(c) Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machine,
IV. Brief Introduction of controller involved on
wind power generation units,
V. Aspects and Issues of wind power
integration into Power System,
VI. Overview of future projects on UK (North Sea
case: Dogger Bank, Hornsea, etc).
