| Abstract |
In this papur, the STATCOM (STATic synchronous COMpensator) application for efficient operations of wind farm is described. The wind farm connected with the electric power network is one of good alternative energy sources. However, it would be also highly possible that interconnection of wind farm causes unwanted influences on distribution system operation, protection and control. This paper proposes the STATCOM application for reducing the negative effects from interconnection of wind farm with distribution networks. The simulation results show that STATCOM would be on effective and useful device to resolve the bad influences from wind farm on distribution networks and improve the operational efficiency of wind farm. In the simulation, the radial distribution network of IEEE 13 bus was modeled using PSCAD/EMTDC. |
