Performance Analysis of a DFIG Based Wind Turbine with BESS System for Voltage and Frequency Stability during Grid Fault

The ease of Doubly-Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) based wind turbines is largely deployed due to their variable speed feature and hence influencing system dynamics. However, owing to grid faults, the output power fluctuation in the DFIG wind turbine system brings a major concern to power system stability. In this paper, the grid voltage and frequency stability of the wind power system investigates different cases such as DFIG and the approach of a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS). Designing of a wind turbine model including Rotor Side Controller (RSC) and Grid Side Controller (GSC) and connected to the grid. An equivalent BESS is introduced in the power system model and connected to the grid through a three-phase inverter. The BESS system is designed to stabilize the frequency at a constant value with controlled active power also; voltage is controlled by reactive power. To design the wind turbine only active power is considered in this specific work. Therefore, the system performance has improved after including BESS. The performance analysis is observed by simulation work through “PSCAD/EMTDC” professional software, which is the most realistic and well-organized software, especially for power system analysis.
