Fault Ride-Through Capability
• Wind power plants should be able to stay on-
line under transient faults/disturbances.
• The voltage should tolerate 0 p.u. for 15 ms
(9 cycles).
• Wind power plants should be able to regulate
the power factor between 0.95 leading/lagging.
• Wind power plants should have a SCADA
system to allow remote access and monitoring.

•Many (hundreds) of wind turbines (1 MW to 5 MW each)
•Prime mover: Wind (wind turbine) – Renewable (free, natural, pollution free)
•Controllability: Curtailment
•Predictability: Wind variability based on wind forecasting, influenced more by nature (wind) than humans, based on maximizing energy production (unscheduled operation).
•Located at wind resource; may be far from the load center.
•Generator: Four different types (fixed speed, variable slip, variable speed, full converter) – Non-synchronous generation
•Types 3 and 4: Variable speed with flux-oriented controller (FOC) via power converter. Rotor does not have to rotate synchronously.

Conclusions
• Cost reduction in the past 20 years • Many and diverse opportunities for Power Electronics
Generation, transmission, and distribution
• Know the limitations Thermal, magnetic, electric (voltage, current) etc.
• Know the applications Environment: Ocean, land-based, isolated, clusters Opportunities to work in parallel (PV – Wind – CSP)
• Leverage existing and future technologies Other industries (drives, transportation, ship building) Modern technologies (smart control, wireless, condition monitoring,
cyber physical and security, synchrophasor, market driven)
