Power Quality Improvement of Grid Connected Wind Energy System Using DSTATCOM-BESS

Electricity generation from wind energy has increased rapidly in recent years and the trend is likely to continue. Due to intermittent environmental factors and integration of wind power generation system with the grid, creates power quality issues including voltage swells, voltage dips, harmonics, power factor and poor voltage regulation. When wind power is injected into the grid, it reduces the performance of utility as well as consumer’s equipment. To improve the power quality, a Distribution Static Compensator (DSTATCOM) is used. This paper itroduces the power quality improvement technique for grid connected wind power plant using DSTATCOM with battery energy storage system (BESS). The proposed scheme mainly depends on the reactive power supply requirements of the load and the induction generator. The proposed scheme is simulated in MATLAB/Simulink software.
