This paper introduces a wind turbine simulation system based on the IEC 61400-25 standard to simulate different kinds of wind turbines. A unified communication protocol was required for monitoring and control of wind turbines, because manufacturers had used their own protocols for their turbines. As a result of such an effort, the international standard IEC 61400-25 was established. To implement the schema of IEC 61400-25, the IEC61850 SCL was modified and applied to the simulation system, which enabled the system to be compatible with heterogeneous wind turbine information models. The developed simulation system can be used for interoperability tests with a new type of wind turbine information model.

IEC 61400-25(Communications for monitoring and control of wind power plants) is established as a international standard by IEC TC 88 in 2007 with the growth of the wind power industry. In this paper, MMS service which is defined in lEC 61400-25 part 4 is implemented, and the wind power generator is objectified by using the VMD of MMS service. We also implemented MMS communication system between the wind power generator and the local control center using the proposed VMD. The performance of the developed MMS communication system is verified through the XML based user interface on the web browser.

In this paper, a database method for Wind Power Plant SCADA system based on IEC61400-25 was designed. To manage big data, which is produced by the introduction of international standards and large/grouping of wind power plant, database should be systematically designed. As identify the characteristics of the wind power data and reflect the requirements of a user, it would be decreasing the waste of data space and managing efficiently the system. As a result, it is expected to reduce cost and effort in development and maintenance of Wind Power Plant.

As increasing the importance of renewable energy recently, the scale of a wind power plant is increasing to the number of GW scale and specially, it is trend to move from onshore to offshore to use the higher quantity and quality of wind. Consequently to meet the trend, it is largely considered the importance of communication protocol to control and monitor remotely. But, because the communication protocol between the control center and a wind turbine has been independently developed by each wind turbine vendor, it is absence of the compatibility and extensibility when the heterogeneous wind turbines are installed in the wind farm. The IEC 61400-25 is the specifying standard for these problems in Europe. In this paper, we will show the state of these problems and present a new structure of communication based on the IEC 61400-25 to get the compatibility and extensibility between a control center and wind turbines.

Nowadays, a rapid development in wind power technologies is occurring compared with other renewable energies. This advance in technology has facilitated a new generation of wind turbines with larger capacity and higher efficiency. As the height of the turbines and the distance between turbines increases, the monitoring and control of this new generation wind turbines presents new challenges. This paper presents the architectural design, simulation, and evaluation of hybrid communication networks for a large-scale wind turbine (WT). The communication network of WT is designed based on logical node (LN) concepts of the IEC 61400-25 standard. The proposed hybrid network architectures are modeled and evaluated by OPNET. We also investigate network performance using three different technologies: Ethernet-based, WiFi-based, and ZigBee-based. Our network model is validated by analyzing the simulation results. This work contributes to the design of a reliable communication network for monitoring and controlling a wind power farms (WPF).
