Wind power generation and consumption system

What is wind power generation?

Wind power generation is the process of converting wind energy into electric energy. This is achieved by using a wind generating set that absorbs wind energy with a specially designed blade, converting it to mechanical energy, which then drives a generator to produce electricity.

Why is wind energy a major energy source?

Due to their high level of unpredictability, intermittent nature, and nonlinear power system connectivity, RESs such as wind energy bring technological hurdles to energy systems. The need for adaptability in operations and power consumption management is increased by this sort of source.

What are the problems of wind energy integration?

Wind energy integration's key problems are energy intermittent, ramp rate, and restricting wind park production . The energy storage system generating-side contribution is to enhance the wind plant's grid-friendly order to transport wind power in ways that can be operated such as traditional power stations.

How can a wind generation system be regulated?

One approach involves operating the wind generation system with power reserve, achieved by shifting the MPPT reference. In this approach, the pitch angle can be regulated based on frequency deviations, enabling power reserves to participate in primary frequency control 156.

Why is wind energy integration unpredictable?

Wind energy integration into power systems presents inherent unpredictability because of the intermittent nature of wind energy. The penetration rate determines how wind energy integration affects system reliability and stability .

Can energy storage help integrate wind power into power systems?

As Wang et al. argue, energy storage can play a key role in supporting the integration of wind power into power systems. By automatically injecting and absorbing energy into and out of the grid by a change in frequency, ESS offers frequency regulations.
