Abstract

The annual increase in installation capacity and electrical production of renewable energy sources, primarily wind turbine generators (WTG), is shaping a renewable energy dominated power system. WTGs are susceptible to the temporary overvoltage caused by reactive power surplus following low-voltage ride through (LVRT). This can lead to the large-scale trip-off of WTGs and pose significant risks to the secure and stable operation of power systems. An insightful elaboration of the underlying mechanisms determining the occurrence of temporary overvoltage, and an analysis of influencing factors, is pivotal to ensure the reliable integration of WTGs. This paper investigates the temporary overvoltage in the AC systems integrated with multiple renewable energy stations. A temporary overvoltage model that accounts for various types of equipment has been derived. Resorting to the model, the influence of LVRT parameters of WTGs, SCR and IR of the AC system on the maximum terminal overvoltage has been quantitatively assessed. Simulations and semi-physical validations have been conducted to verify the effectiveness and accuracy of the theoretical analysis.
