Abstract

To ensure the transient stability of power system connected to a wind farm, wind power plant must be able to supply reactive power at the point of the common coupling(PCC). The reactive power capability of each individual wind turbine may not sufficient to maintain stability. Also, there are large reactive power losses in connection cables between wind farm and PCC. The static synchronous compensator(STATCOM) is considered for transient stability enhancement, because it provides many advantages such as the fast response time and superior reactive power support capability. In this paper, the effectiveness of a STATCOM in enhancing transient stability of power system connected to a wind farm is presented. The results of dynamic simulations show that STATCOM installed at the PCC can enhance transient stability.

풍력단지가 연계된 전력계통의 과도안정도를 보장하기 위해서는 전력계통과 풍력단지의 접속점에 풍력발전기가 충분한 무효전력을 공급할 수 있어야 한다. 하지만 개별의 풍력터빈은 안정도를 유지하기 위한 충분한 무효전력 공급능력을 가지지 못한다. 또한 풍력단지와 접속점 사이의 케이블은 리액턴스가 크고 이에 따른 무효전력 손실도 크다. STATCOM(Static Synchronous Compensator)은 고속으로 동작할 수 있고 충분한 무효전력을 공급할 능력을 가지고 있기 때문에 과도안정도를 향상시킬 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 풍력단지가 연계된 전력계통의 과도안정도 향상에 있어서 STATCOM의 유효성을 보인다. 접속점에 STATCOM을 설치하고 동적 모의를 한 결과 과도 안정도가 향상되는 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.
