Control of Battery Energy Storage System for Wind Turbine based on DFIG during Symmetrical Grid Fault

Abstract

This paper presents a specific control strategy of Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) conceived for a wind turbine system operating under electrical grid disturbance. Two mains aspects related to DFIG behavior are studied: fluctuation of its output power and Low-Voltage Ride Trough capability (LVRT) of wind turbine generator system. In order to smooth the output power injected in the electrical grid and to improve dynamic behavior of a variable speed wind turbine generator system under symmetrical voltage dip, a control strategy of the Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) is proposed. Simulations have been carried out in Matlab environment, and the results validate the effectiveness of our control.
