In this article, an improved integrated battery energy storage system (BESS) controller for distributed energy system is presented. The BESS is integrated in parallel with the full wave bridge converter into the distributed energy system network. In a normal operating mode, the BESS serves as a...

This paper presents a wind-driven induction generator system with a hybrid controller, which combines the advantages of the integral–proportional and the sliding mode controllers. The proposed controller is designed to adjust the turbine speed to extract maximum power from the wind. The...

This paper is interested in the control of a wind energy conversion system (WECS) based on the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) under grid fault conditions. A single line to ground fault and a double line to ground fault are tested during the hyper-synchronous operation of the DFIG wind...

To detect and alleviate harmonic resonance in a power system have been a delicate issue. In this paper, the effect of load modeling on resonance behavior of power systems employing eigenvalue sensitivity analysis is investigated. The most influencing parameters to mitigate resonance modes are...

Based on a data-intensive weather-driven modelling approach, technically and economically optimal designs are derived for a simplified, highly renewable pan-European electricity system, which minimise the need for backup energy, backup capacity, transmission capacity and the levelised system...

This paper deals with the power generation efficiency analysis of a proposed offshore wind farm topology, consisting of a SLPC (single large power converter) that simultaneously controls a group of generators. This common converter can operate at a VF (variable frequency) or at a CF (constant...

This paper deals with the analysis of power, generated by offshore wind farms, connected to a single large power converter (SLPC), operating at variable frequency (VF) or at constant frequency (CF). The results are compared with a scheme widely used in current onshore wind farms, consisting of...

A future energy system is likely to rely heavily on wind and solar PV. To quantify general features of such a weather dependent electricity supply in the contiguous US, wind and solar PV generation data are calculated, based on 32 years of weather data with temporal resolution of 1h and spatial...

For conventional HAWT (horizontal axis wind turbines), the rotor speed is maintained constant while the blade tip speed changes continuously. This reduces considerably the power performance of the wind turbine particularly at high wind speeds where the tip speed ratio is small. With growth of...
