TYPE-3 AND TYPE-4 WTG MODELS FOR GRID SYNCHRONIZING STABILITY ASSESSMENT

Abstract

The significance of wind energy in the global energy mix cannot be overstated, with its potential to reduce carbon emissions and enhance energy security. This paper delves into the importance of wind energy and the pivotal role of Type 3 and Type 4 wind turbines in its evolution. Emphasizing the need for accurate modeling, it explores the intricacies of grid synchronization stability assessment, crucial for seamless integration into existing power systems. Various methods such as dynamic analysis modal, analysis, and trajectory analysis are examined for modeling Type 3 and Type 4 turbines. Through comprehensive case studies including Single Machine Infinite Bus (SMIB), wind farms, and multi-machine systems, the effectiveness of these methods in studying grid stability is demonstrated. Results underscore the necessity of advanced modeling techniques in ensuring the reliable and efficient integration of wind energy into the grid, thereby advancing sustainable energy transitions.
