Newsletter Issue 95 April 2004 MODELING WIND FARMS FOR POWER SYSTEM STABILITY STUDIES Yuriy Kazachkov* Executive Consultant yuriy.kazachkov@ Steve Stapleton* Senior Consultant steve.stapleton@ *On behalf of the Shaw PTI team involved in the wind power model development Introduction The proper modeling of wind energy projects in system studies is becoming increasingly important to system operators and transmission system owners. The amount of wind generation is growing rapidly and wind farms are growing in size and complexity. Wind farms are being installed consisting of hundreds of units, with the wind farm capable of producing hundreds of MW. The location of a wind farm is selected primarily based on good wind conditions (and, of course, favorable economic and environmental conditions). However these good wind conditions often coincide with relatively remote parts of the power system. Thus the operation of the wind farm and its response to disturbances or other changing conditions on the power system is becoming of increasing concern, especially in cases where the wind farms represent a significant portion of the local generation. These concerns will continue to grow in importance as the amount of wind generation increases. Wind energy conversion systems comprise mechanical and electrical equipment and their controls. Modeling these systems for power system stability simulation studies requires careful analysis of the equipment and controls to determine the characteristics that are impor
