Abstract

This paper presents a comprehensive strategy for enhancing the low voltage ride-through capability in wind energy conversion systems by integrating phasor measurement units, Type-III wind turbine systems, and flexible AC transmission systems devices. The research focuses on double fed induction generators-based wind turbines, which constitute a significant portion of wind energy systems but face challenges in maintaining grid stability during voltage sags. As wind turbines are directly connected to the grid without digital power interfaces, regulating terminal voltage and reactive power becomes challenging. To address these issues, active low voltage ride-through strategies are proposed by incorporating intelligent phasor measurement unit-based controllers with reactive power compensation using flexible AC transmission system devices. The paper evaluates various adaptive low voltage ride-through techniques to ensure seamless grid integration, focusing on performance, controller complexity, and cost-effectiveness. The study highlights how series-connected flexible AC transmission system devices, managed through sensor-based SCADA frameworks and adaptive state estimation algorithms, improve wind energy conversion system stability. The phasor measurement unit is employed as a heuristic intelligent controller to monitor grid conditions in real time, identify optimal locations for reactive power compensation, and ensure grid synchronization with minimal phasor measurement unit deployment. The model is developed and simulated in MATLAB, validated through hardware-based filtering, and tested on the IEEE 14-bus system to analyze the effectiveness of the proposed low voltage ride-through enhancement techniques. Results demonstrate improved stability, fault tolerance, and synchronization between the wind turbine and the grid, contributing to more reliable renewable energy integration.
