Abstract

Unlike dispatchable central power stations, wind power sources produce reliable power from external intermittent sources, and this is the wind speed incident that does not always flow when electricity is required. This results in wind resource variation, randomness, and volatility. There is, therefore, a major challenge for the operator's power system to connect wind turbines to the electricity grid. This integration has important implications for optimum power flow, issues with energy efficiency, network stability, load management, and economic evaluation. This paper addresses the relation to the distribution system with a low voltage of small wind turbines with multiple array configuration and improved control system integration. A C grids having a low short-circuit ratio (SCR) influence the performance stability of wind turbines which have been used taking the power from the wind turbine arrays for getting the maximum output and efficiency. The active and reactive power supplied to the grid by the inverter and its control system is evaluated. This is done by means of proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controllers generating the required reference signals.
