Grid Integration of Wind Energy Conversion System with Variable Speed Analysis Using Simulink Model

The conventional energy resources such as wind have a major role in the production of power since the conventional fossil fuels are getting extinct, while the requirement for electrical energy is increases. Wind power, as a source of renewable energy, has proved to be amongst the most reliable and developing source for meeting the demand of electrical energy. The necessity of grid integrated wind energy conversion system (WECS) is evident. Doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) is universally accepted for WECS. In this work, the analysis of active and reactive power of 220 kV grid and the voltage generated at different speeds has been undertaken. Two WECS operating at different wind speeds have been integrated with grid. The power and voltage generated has been analyzed when both the WECS operate at same and at different speed of wind. Wind speed has been analyzed at which the DFIG feeds power to the grid.
