Abstract

Large disturbances in an induction generator-based wind system necessitate rapid compensation for the reactive power. This article addresses the application of Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) in optimizing the performance of grid connected wind power system. The functionality of the static synchronous compensator in maintaining system stability and reliability during/post diverse severe disturbances is thoroughly investigated. A design procedure for STATCOM, particularly the capacitor in the DC side was advised.
