Connection Study of Wind Power Plant Kovačica to the Transmission Network of Serbia
client: Elektromreza Srbije - EMS (Serbia)
type: Study (Generation, Transmission, Power Quality, Renewable)
finishing date: July 2015
team: Milan Ivanovic - Project Leader, M. Vukovic and N. Jovic - Consultants, M. Stojanovic
Main objective of the study is to analyse compliance of selected wind turbines to the Serbian grid code, for the point of common coupling suggested by the Investor. In order examine compliance of the wind power plant to Serbian grid code, following activities have been performed:
- Integration of simulation model of WPP Kovačica into regional SEE dynamic model in software PSSE and DIgSILENT
- Load flow analyses – network element loadings, security N-1 assesment, power losses, voltage and reactive power control
- Short circuit contribution assessment
- Transient stability – Checking the capability of wind generators to maintain stability and provide the required voltage support in cases of simulated voltage dips in the network (caused by close and remote electrical faults)
- Mid-term stability - Stability assessment after large disturbances in the power system of Serbia
- Short-term and long-term voltage stability assessment
- Small signal stability assessment
- Assessment of power quality indices in connection point – Voltage flickers (normal and switching operation), harmonic distortion
- EMT simulations - Switching transient overvoltage assessment.
