Abstract

In recent years, the large penetration of wind power

poses new challenges for the voltage stability analysis of an

electric power network. In this paper is studied the effect of large

scale integration of wind power in the dynamic voltage stability

of a power network under a fault condition. The automatic

voltage regulators of the generating units, the turbine speed

governors and the double fed induction generator were modeled.

Different load models were used and the under load tap changers

were also taken into account. The simulation results were

obtained using the EUROSTAG software package. Finally, some

conclusions that provide a better understanding of the dynamic

voltage stability in a system with a large amount of wind power

generation are pointed out.
