Wind Turbine Connected to Tobruk Steam Power Station
Journal Title: Libyan Journal of Engineering Science and Technology - Year 2022, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
Renewable energy such as wind power and other types enables opportunities to provide major contributions to energy security and reduction of the environment pollution. This work focus on (10MW) wind turbines connecting to Tobruk steam power station, to contribute to load supply during steady state operation and supply the power station during starting up and blackouts. Although the connection of the wind turbines to the power system network is useful but need control technique thus this paper proposes control that system controls power flow in the grid-connected mode of operation, maintains voltage and frequency of the wind turbines within acceptable operating limits when they island, and resynchronizes them with the network before reconnecting them. More over the central controller has a facility of loss of main protection technique to isolate the wind turbines when loss of main generators is detected. The study has been implemented and tested using power system computer aided design (PSCAD). The results showed that this connection will have a good effect on the station operation during steady state and up normal conditions.
