| Abstract | An increasing demand and the depletion of the fossil fuels are constant concerns for the actual electrical energy industry. In addition, the high levels of pollution due to decades of using carbon derived fuels as principal source of energy have become a major concern. In this situation, wind energy conversion has become an important source of renewable energy and the source with the biggest growth in the last decade. As large numbers of wind energy generation are integrated in to power system, it creates problem related to voltage stability as output from wind generators are not constant. This is due to wind generators are equipped with squirrel cage induction generator. This creates problem of voltage stability in the whole power system and to solve this problem FACTS devices are used. In this project Static compensator (STATCOM) is used to achieve optimal working of power grid connected with wind energy generators. The operation of wind turbine and STATCOM for voltage enhancement is simulated using MATLAB/ Simulink. A fuzzy controller for the proposed STATCOM is designed by using an adequate damping to the dominant modes of the Squirrel cage induction generator. A frequency domain approach based on a linearized system model using Eigen value analysis is performed while a time domain scheme based on a linear system model subject to disturbances is also carried out. The performance of STATCOM in enhancing voltage stability of power grid is also shown. |
