Introduction
During the past 10 years, there have been a high interest about the development and implementation
of renewable and clean energies, such as photo-voltaic, wind, hydraulic, geothermic and biomass
energy. However, some of these energy sources are highly uctuating through the power generation,
such as wind and solar energy systems [5]. In relation to wind energy, a cause of it is intermittent,
indeterminate and unpredictable, it is dicult the integration between wind turbines and the electric
grid; likewise, the wind farms have limitation to supply electrical power to the grid. Therefore, in
order to compensate the intermittency generated by wind turbines and increase the stability in the
system, it is necessary to include energy storage systems or batteries to wind farms [6].
By controlling the power in the grid using ESS or batteries technologies, it is a way to create
stability in the system. The batteries are devices that dynamically can adjust active and reactive
power. They can control power oscillations with low frequency and can improve the system stability
[7]. Moreover, including ESS to a wind farm, it is possible to mitigate the generation volatility
and improve the physical availability aligning the peak generation at peak loads. Furthermore,
it is possible to reduce the imbalance caused by programming errors, reducing the congestion in
transmission system reliability.

Problem Context
A consequence of the risk of conventional energy generation and environmental awareness, the de-
velopment of renewable resources have increased in the past 10 years. The wind energy is renewable
resource that generates electrical energy through wind turbines. In 2010, the overall wind turbine
capacity in China has exceeded 40000 MW, and expect to generate 150000 MW in 2020 when 7
large wind farms projects of 10000 MW is completed [8]. In the Colombian case, in 2015 UPME
sign three wind power generation projects, where those projects contribute 474 MW to the grid [9].
The high volatility and intermittency of wind power systems creates a great uncertainty in the
reliability of this type of generation system. Moreover, it is dicult to developed large scale wind
farms, because its impact over the grid on power dispatch, power quality and system stability increase
with the penetration level [8].
2.1 General Purpose
Given the above scenario, the objective of this graduation project is analyze the connection impact
between an energy storage system with a wind farm during a system voltage drop.

Chapter 2. Problem Context 3
2.2 Specic Objectives
1. Research and analyze the state of art from the dierent energy storage systems technologies.
2. Asses the connection performance between the wind turbine and the grid.
3. Asses the connection performance between the battery and the grid.
4. Make a power quality analysis about the battery connection to the grid.
5. Validate the developed system in a computational software.
2.3 Description of the solution
In a wind farm the ESS is used to keep constant the active power since the variations from the
wind power. The extra power generated can be stored in the batteries at hours of low demand. The
combination between batteries and wind power synthesized the output wave when there is reactive
power consumption or injection, allowing the active power ow required by the load [8].
It is dicult to store large quantities of electrical energy; thus, its production and consumption
must be balanced in real time. During the past years, the large quantity of electrical energy stored
have been solve through large-scale energy storage system technologies. Hence, large-scale ESS is
considered as a potential technology to improve the exibility and receptivity of power grid and
solving the coordination problem of intermittent energy of wind power [8].
Chapter 3
State of Art
3.1 Wind turbine connection to the grid
I. Voltage Fluctuation on grid: The wind variations generates power uctuation at the wind
turbines. The uctuations generate sag and swell voltages on the grid; where the amplitude
depends on grid strength, network impedance and power factor. Nowadays, the power quality
assessment and measurement on grid connected to wind turbine is dene by IEC 61400-21
standard. In this standard is stated that 10 minute average of voltage uctuation should be
within +/- 5% of nominal value [10].
The start up of wind turbines causes a swell voltage on the grid, where in most cases a reduction
of 3% is acceptable. In IEC 61400-3-7 standard are dened the assessment of emission limit
for uctuation load [10].
On the other hand, the behavior of wind farms in presence of voltage drops in the electrical
network is a problem to be aware. The voltages drops are caused by faults in the network,
which are characterized by their amplitudes and duration. Those voltage dips creates doubts
about the wind power generation capacity to remain connected during and after the fault [11].
II. Reactive Power: The traditional wind turbine works with induction generator. Thus, the
generator requires reactive power from the grid to operate correctly. On this type of wind
turbines are used xed capacitor to compensate the reactive power. As a result, the risk of
4
Chapter 3. State of Art 5
self excitation may occur during o grid operation. In this manner, sensitive equipment may
be subjected to over/under voltage and frequency operation [10].
III. Harmonics The harmonic emission is an important issue for the connection between wind
turbines and the grid. The harmonics can cause overheating in the generator and other prob-
lems because it may result in voltage distortion and torque pulsations [12].
The wind turbines emit low-order harmonics and interharmonics, which are non-integer har-
monics. Low-order harmonics are ltered with self commuted converters, that are used in the
modern turbines. Nevertheless, those converters emit high-order harmonics to the grid. In
the IEC 61000-4-7 and IEC 61400-21 are dened the requirements for the measurement of
harmonics, interharmonics and higher current components [12].
3.1.1 Standard IEC-61400-21- Measurement and assessment of power quality
characteristics of grid connected wind turbines
The IEC 61400-21 standard is the reference normative for the certication of power quality of
wind turbines. The procedures and methodology for the measurement and assessment of power
quality characteristics of grid-connected turbines are determined by this standard. According to
this standard, the measurements should be performed during normal and switching operations for
voltage drops, harmonic content, icker, and active and reactive power [11].
Since this graduation project focus on voltage drops on wind turbines, this section will explained
the response to voltage drops on wind turbines according to IEC-61400-21 Standard [1].
3.1.1.1 Response to voltage drops
According to item I. the voltage drops are a main problem for wind farms connection to the grid.
Hence, the IEC 61400-21 standard gives a methodology to check the wind farms behavior in case of
voltage drops.
The test must be apply at the wind turbine terminals when it is disconnected from the grid. The
wind turbines response to voltage drops shall be stated at two dierent situations: the rst one a)
Chapter 3. State of Art 6
between 10% and 30% of Pn (Rated active power) and the second b) above 90% Pn. On table 3.1
are specied the voltage drops magnitudes and duration that have to be tested at the wind turbine
terminals [1].

The wind turbine response to the temporary drops specied in table 3.1 shall include time-series of
active power, reactive power, active current, reactive current and voltage at wind turbine terminals
for the time shortly prior to the voltage drop and until the eect of the voltage drop has extinguished.
The test can be carried out using the the set-up illustrated in gure 3.1; where the voltage drops
are created by a short-circuit emulator that connects the three or two phases to ground through an
impedance [11].

Chapter 3. State of Art 7
The voltage drop is created by connecting the impedance Z2 by the switch S, which must be able to
control the time between connection and disconnection of Z2. The impedance of Z2 should be adjust
to get the voltage magnitudes specied in table 3.1 at the wind turbine terminals. The impedance
of Z1 is for limiting the eect of the short circuit on the upstream grid. The value of this impedance
should be selected with the purpose that the voltage drop testing won't have a signicantly eect
at the upstream grid and the transient response of the wind turbine [11].
3.2 Energy Storage System
3.2.1 Energy Storage System Applications
The energy storage systems (ESS) are applied on photo-voltaic and wind energy connection to the
grid. The ESS stored energy near the loads, support the transmission and distribution systems,
connection of electrical vehicles, and have commercial, industrial and residential applications [2].
The ESS help to voltage and frequency regulation, enhancement of power quality, peak-shaving,
load leveling, reserve capacity, and so on to improve the renewable resources integration to the
grid,[13]. On table 3.2 there are 9 energy storage systems applications.
3.2.2 Energy Storage Systems Technologies
There are dierent ESS technologies for various applications. On table 3.4, there is the application
(describe on table 3.3) for each technology and their respective capacity, power, duration, and e-
ciency. Moreover, on gure 3.2 is graphically explained the characteristics of various ESS technology
options in terms of system power rating (X-axis) and duration of discharge time at rated power
(Y-axis) [2].

input and output variables for this project. The input variables are the wind farm and battery
parameters; and the output variable is the voltage drop analysis. For the wind farm is necessary
to know the generator, converter and turbine variables and the control parameters for each turbine.
To correctly size the battery is signicant its application, duty cycle, room temperature, depth of

5.1 IEC 61400-21
As it was mentioned before, it is used the model showed in gure 3.1 to test the voltage drops at the
wind turbines. Therefore, it is necessary to make the system short circuit analysis to calculate the
impedance Z2. This impedance is calculated to get the table 3.1 voltage magnitudes at the wind
turbines terminals.
5.1.1 Short circuit analysis
For a symmetrical three-phase voltage drop is just necessary the positive sequence short circuit
analysis. Whereas, for a symmetrical two-phase voltage drop it is necessary the three sequences
short circuit analysis.
Figure 5.1 represents the system design and its main parameters, which are used to test the wind
farm voltage drops.
The line impedance (see table 5.2) is calculated with ATP draw software [14], where the distances
between the conductors are specied in gure 5.2.

5.1.1.1 Positive Sequence Analysis
Figure 5.3 illustrates the positive sequence short circuit system diagram. In gure 5.3(a), the second
transformer (Transformer 2) does not appear in the gure 5.1 because it is the wind turbines internal
transformer.
The capacitor impedance from the line and the magnetization impedance from each transformer are
insignicant for the positive sequence impedance calculation because they are pretty large. On the
other hand, the magnetization impedance from the wind turbines is signicant to solve the system.
As a consequence, to start to simplify the circuit, the rotor voltage source (VR) is transformed to a
current source, as it is showed at gure 5.3(b), where:
IR =VR
RR + LR(5.1)
The gure 5.3(c), represent the equivalent circuit with the transformation from the current source
to a voltage source, the new values are obtained with equations 5.2 and 5.3.
ZR||M =ZR × ZM
ZR + ZM(5.2)
VRNEW= IR × ZR||M (5.3)
The the equivalent circuit is showed in gure 5.3(d), where
Req1 = R1 +RL (5.4)
Leq1 = L1 + LL (5.5)
Req2 = RT1prim +RT1sec +RT2prim +RT2sec +RS +RR||M (5.6)
Leq2 = LT1prim + LT1sec + LT2prim + LT2sec + LS +RR||M (5.7)
To solve the system thevenin's equivalent it is necessary to transform both voltage sources into
current sources as shown in gure 5.3(e), where:

Then, both current sources sum up to have a total current source, and solved parallel impedance to

5.1.1.2 Negative Sequence Analysis
Figure 5.4 illustrates the negative sequence short circuit system diagram; where Transformer 2 in
gure 5.4(a) corresponds to wind turbines internal transformer.
Alike the positive sequence analysis, the capacitor impedance from the line and the magnetization
impedance from each transformer are insignicant, and the magnetization impedance from the wind
turbines is signicant to solve the system.
To simplify the circuit, rst it is solved the parallel impedance between the rotor and the magneti-
zation impedance, using equation 5.2. The simplied circuit can be seen in gure 5.4(b).
Then, to get the equivalent circuit seen in gure 5.4(c), the equations 5.4 - 5.7 are used. Finally, to
get the equivalent negative sequence impedance (gure 5.4(d)), it is used the equation 5.11.

and the secondary side is connected to the circuit next to it, as it can be seen in gure 5.5(a).
Alike the positive and negative sequence analysis, the capacitor impedance from the line and the

The DC/AC converter is necessary to transform DC battery voltage and current into AC; conse-

to charge the battery and a PWM inverter to discharge the battery [17]. Figure 5.10 illustrates the
basic topology of the rectier 5.10(a) and PWM inverter 5.10(b).
As it is illustrated in gure 5.10(b), the inverter has a LC lter to mitigate harmonics. Table 5.7
shows the LC lter parameters. Furthermore, due to the converters generate in the voltage and

conguration (see gure 5.1) which is wye-delta.

It is notable that when it is analyzing the system for the third case (voltage drop=0.2 pu), it is not
well computed. In Matlab/Simulink software a two phase fault to ground impedance below 40 Ω
is not well simulated. For this reason, in gures 6.8(a), A.11(a) and A.12(a), instead of phases B
and C have a voltage drop to 0.2 pu, the phase A and C drops to 0.6025, 0.6174 pu and 0.6229 pu
respectively and phase B drops to 0 pu.

Table 6.2 resume the three voltage drop magnitude cases at the wind farm terminal with the dierent
active rated power. It is visible that during dierent wind farm active power percentage, the voltage
drop is insignicant.

6.2 Case Study
6.2.1 Battery Validation
Figure 6.9 illustrates the battery behavior when the voltage at the grid is during, under and above
of 1 pu. The battery state (charge, discharge, idling) is controlled by the voltage that is after the
DC/AC converter; and also depends of the battery state of charge percentage (%SOC). In table 6.3
is explained the battery state according to the voltage measured after the DC/AC converter and the
%SOC.
Chapter 6. Simulation Results 31
Table 6.3: Battery State
Battery State Voltage after DC/AC converter [pu] %SOC [%]
Idling 0.97 ≤ V ≤ 1.03 100,≤ 20
Charging V > 1.03 < 100
Discharging V < 0.97 > 20
Figure 6.9 represents the battery state of charge and the bidirectional converter voltage output. At
the beginning, the battery is arriving to its stable state and meanwhile the battery state is idling.
Then at 0.5 s the voltage increase therefore the battery starts to charge. Finally, at 1 s the voltage
decrease, so the battery starts to discharge to supply power to the grid.

6.2.2 Wind Farm and Battery connection to the grid
Figure 6.10 represents the circuit system developed in Matlab/Simulink, which corresponds to dia-
gram of gure 5.8.
Chapter 6. Simulation Results 32
Figure 6.10: Case Study Diagram on Matlab/Simulink
On this case, at the beginning (from 0 to 0.5 s) the wind farm, the equivalent network and the
battery are connected to the load, and after 0.5 s the equivalent network is disconnected from the
grid. Figures A.15 and A.16 represents the battery, wind farm, and load voltage, active and reactive
power respectively when the battery is not connected to the grid. On the other hand, gures A.17
and A.18 illustrates the battery, wind farm, and load voltage, active and reactive power respectively
when the battery is connected to the grid. The battery voltage is measured in the secondary side of
transformer T2 (34.5 kV side).
A cause of the DC/DC and DC/AC converter, the battery generates harmonics in the voltage and
current signal. Figure A.13 and A.14 represents the battery output voltage and current signal
respectively with and without an harmonic lter. For this reason, it is connected a 5th,7th, 11th
and 13th order harmonic lter to the system to decrease the total harmonic distortion in the voltage
and current signal.
In gure A.13(a), it is visible that without the harmonic lter the THD in the voltage signal is 3.87%,
3.94% and 3.64% in phase A, B, and C respectively. In contrast, in gure A.13(b) the THD in the
signal decreases to 0.76%, 0.70% and 0.68% in phase A, B, and C respectively. In gure A.14(a),
it is visible that without the harmonic lter the THD in the current signal is 51.55%, 52.03% and
Chapter 6. Simulation Results 33
51.67% in phase A, B, and C respectively. On the other hand, in gure A.14(b) the THD in the
signal decreases to 8.40%, 8.16% and 6.26% in phase A, B, and C respectively.
Table 6.4 and 6.5 shows the voltage and active power in dierent parts of the system respectively,
when the network equivalent is disconnected from the grid. It is notable that when the battery is
not connected, the voltage drops to 0.9096 and 0.9002 pu at the wind farm and load respectively,
and the active power in the system decrease from 20 MW to 15.98 MW. On the contrary, when the
battery is connected to the grid, it compensates the voltage drop in the grid because the voltage
at the wind farm and the load increase to 0.9667 and 0.9556 pu respectively; as a result, the active
power in the wind farm and load increase to 18.21 MW and 19.16 MW respectively. Therefore, with
battery there are less losses in the system.

Discussion and Conclusion
7.1 Discussion
This graduation project was able to asses the connection performance between the wind turbine and
the grid. According to the IEC 61400-21 standard, it was able to test the voltage drops in a wind
farm with 14 wind turbines, through a three fault and a two phase fault to ground. The three phase
fault test was correctly compute. On the other hand, the two phase fault to ground test is necessary
to repeat it on another software because it was not able to have a correct voltage measurement in
the case of 0.2 pu voltage drop.
Moreover, it was able to model and control a DC/DC and DC/AC converter to charge and discharge
the battery. Therefore, it was able to asses the connection performance between the battery and
the grid. Furthermore, it was possible to analyze the voltage drop in the system with and without
battery.
7.2 Conclusion y Further Work
With this graduation project it was possible to validate IEC 61400-21 standard for a three and two
phase voltage drop simulation test in a wind farm with 14 DFIG wind turbines, where each turbine
generates 1.5 MW
34
Chapter 7. Discussion and Conclusion 35
It is able to charge and discharge the batteries under certain conditions, since the correct sizing,
model and control of the batteries and converters. Thus, it is possible to analyze the performance
connection between the batteries and the grid.
The designed batteries bank can support and compensate a voltage drop in the grid in a range of
0-0.5 pu. On the other hand, the battery converters generate harmonics in the voltage and current
signal. With an harmonic lter it was possible to decrease the %THD in the voltage and current
signal from 4% to 0.7% and 51.75% to 7.6067% respectively.
For further work, it is necessary to test the two phase fault to ground scenarios with other software,
cause the results computed by Matlab/Simulink did not agree with the mathematical results. More-
over, improve the converter control to decrease the harmonics in the system. Furthermore, it would
be better to make a full harmonic analysis in the system to mitigate the harmonics generated by
the battery. Finally, apply the model application in Opal-RT.
