Voltage Regulation for an Electrical Grid

The aim of this study is to analyse the voltage regulation of a power grid when wind power parks are connected to an existing power grid. Secondary the project have studied the placement of these wind power parks and costs related to connecting them to the grid. The goal was to achieve this grid with a smaller than 5% voltage margin and preferably a low phase deviation. The power grid is located in the area around Lule älven. Several issues with constructing and connecting windpower parks to an electrical grid have been studied by numerical analysis of a fictive grid but with real world variables. A balanced and stable grid is achieved with wind and hydro power and is able to successfully operate without non-renewable energy sources.The data was simulated in Matlab to analyse the power grid and the modification of it when connecting the wind power parks. The method used is power flow analysis through Matlab. All required unknown voltages and phase angles are determined and whether they are within given specifications. This entails that a stable electrical grid can be constructed
