Abstract
Synchronous generators provide an inherent inertial response to frequency deviations because of their huge revolving mass that is electro-mechanically tied to the electrical network. Contrariwise, the power converters isolate the revolving mass of variable-speed wind turbines from the electric network. Therefore, they are not able to provide an inherent inertial reaction to frequency events on the electric network. This reduces the effective network inertia, which is essential for marinating the power system’s frequency. To address this problem in cases of using a wind energy doubly fed induction generator, this study introduces a kinetic energy recovery controller to the rotor-side converter.
