Abstract

As a key portion of renewable energy resources (RESs), wind energy penetration is rapidly deployed. The effects of grid faults on grid-connected wind turbines (WTs) are causing problems for wind energy producers. To meet the necessary requirements, additional resources and technical interventions are needed. One of these requirements is low voltage ride-through (LVRT) of doubly fed induction generator (DFIG)-based WTs. This means that DFIG-WTs must stay connected to the grid during transient grid faults and supply active and reactive power after the fault is cleared. Many techniques for improving the LVRT capability of DFIG-WTs have been developed and this paper examines them. The paper also evaluates how well they align with grid codes, and offers case studies and simulations of the selected key techniques. Lastly, this paper provides guidelines and suggested designs for the LVRT techniques for DFIG-WTs to ensure they meet local grid codes.
