Abstract

In Argentinean Patagonia, there exists a growing interest in understanding local problems associated with the increasing of wind energy penetration in the grid. Recent papers show that some of these power quality problems can be reduced by the proper control of the wind farms. In this way, this work deals with the impact and potential contribution of wind generation on the damping of the electromechanical oscillations called inter- and intra-area oscillations. For gaining qualitative insights and understandings on this complex subject, a test system that allows to isolate the oscillations modes is considered. The analysis shows that new control concepts for wind farm can efficiently contribute to the power system damping.
