Islanding Operation and Load Shedding of Micro-Grid Systems with Wind Turbine Generation

This thesis derives the proper load shedding scheme for a distribution system with wind power generating units to maintain the power supply reliability for the islanding operation of micro grid systems after fault disturbance. The comparison of operation performance and control scheme between the fixed speed and the variable speed wind power generators are made. The seasonal wind power energy by the wind turbine is calculated by applying the exponential rate (Power Law) and Weibull possibility distribution model with the actual minutely wind speed data in Hengchun and Penghu area in 2005. The mean values of seasonal wind power output and standard deviation are determined for the design of load shedding scheme for the islanding operation of the distribution feeder. Moreover, a practical distribution feeder BX31 in Fengshan District in Taiwan Power Company (TPC) is selected for the computer simulation of micro grid systems. The systems voltage and power variation of the distribution feeder are investigated when the wind turbine is connected to the feeder by considering the weekday and weekend load models. The voltage sag on the distribution feeder and transient stability of wind turbine are simulated for the fault contingency with three-phase short-circuit fault occurred on the feeder outlet. Consequently, synchronous condensers are connected and the blade angle of wind turbines is then adjusted to improve the transient response of output characteristic of wind turbine. It is found that the power supply reliability of micro grid with wind power generations will be deteriorated following the tripping of wind turbines due to the oscillation of terminal voltage introduced by long fault clearing time. To solve the problem, the proper design of the tripping for the micro grid systems with wind turbines is derived according to the transient stability analysis. To restore the systems stability of the islanding systems, the proper amount of load shedding is determined and the switching of control modes of the wind turbine is executed, according to the power mismatch between wind turbine generation and load demand of the distribution feeder.
