| Abstract |
The size and number of wind farms contributing
to the energy production is continuously growing. The
rating of wind turbines has increased from less than 1 MW
a few years ago to 2- to 3-MW being installed today with 5-
MW machines under development. The interaction of the
wind farm, reactive power compensators, and the associated
power network is being investigated. Because the loads and
the wind farms' output fluctuate during the day, the use of
reactive power compensation is ideal for the power system
network. The purpose of this study is to provide wind farm
developers and interested researchers with some valuable
insights into the reactive power compensation techniques for
wind farm power systems. |
