Abstract:
With the increasing need for sustainable energy sources, wind power has gained prominence as a clean and renewable option. Nevertheless, incorporating wind power into the electrical grid at a significant scale can have a considerable impact on the dynamic behavior of the power system, leading to heightened operational uncertainties. The expanding requirement for power network connection to wind farms has led to the occurrence of rotor angle fluctuations and frequency instability. This paper utilizes a Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) along with a multi-band power system stabilizer (MB-PSS) to assess the transient stability of a power grid. To demonstrate the system's efficiency under fault conditions, such as triple line-to-ground faults (LLLG), a nine-bus, three-machine test network incorporating a Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) has been employed. The system's performance has been evaluated through MATLAB/Simulink simulations, which reveal that the combination of STATCOM with MB-PSS produces superior results in enhancing transient stability when compared to the scenarios of using STATCOM alone or not using it at all.
