Wind Energy Systems: Solutions for Power Quality and Stabilization

By Mohd. Hasan Ali and Mohd Hasan Ali

Book Overview

Unlike conventional power plants, wind plants emit no air pollutants or greenhouse gases-and wind energy is a free, renewable resource. This book explores fundamental concepts of wind energy conversion systems, discussing grid integration and stability issues, methods of transient stability enhancement, and minimization of fluctuations in power, frequency, and voltage in wind generator systems. The author provides tools and information to help ensure generator stabilization in the face of network faults and other obstacles, including random wind speed variations and fluctuations in output power, frequency, and terminal voltage. He also explains methodologies associated with minimizing those fluctuations.
