Improving Power Quality of Wind Energy Conversion System with Harmonic Filters Gidwani Lata and H.P. Tiwari  Abstract—The increasing interest to utilize wind energy as a years with many researches done in this area [5-6]. power source prompted more researches to be dedicated to the Harmonic emissions are recognized as a power quality efficient integration of this power source into the current grid. problem for modern variable-speed wind turbines (WTs). In this paper, one avenue to achieve this efficient utilization, For this reason, relevant standards require the measurement through the use of integrated wind energy conversion system (WECS) using doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) is of harmonics [7]10] and their inclusion in the power quality presented. Wind grid integration brings the problems of certificates of WTs, and grid interconnection assessment voltage fluctuation and harmonic distortion. This paper procedures always comprise provisions for their control presents an efficient power electronic interface with harmonic [11], [12]. In this paper, the WECS with harmonic filters filters to reduce the total harmonic distortion (THD) and capable of reducing THD noticeably during disturbances enhance power quality during disturbances. A phase to phase fault is simulated on 132 kV bus and the measured results [13] is proposed. It has a pitchangled controlled win
