Angular Stability Enhancement of Grid Integrated Wind Energy Using PSO to Optimize PSS

Abstract

The majority of nations are making efforts to protect our planet by reducing emissions caused by the combustion of fossil fuels to create energy and increasing the production of green power from renewable energy sources. Wind energy is one of the renewable energy sources that is the least destructive to the environment and an efficient approach to reducing carbon emissions. Wind power is also one of the renewable energy sources that are the most cost-effective. However, even though wind energy has been employed for quite some time, there are still some challenges that this form of renewable energy must overcome, such as maintaining the stability of the power grid. The primary objective of this research is to enhance the transient stability of the power system by utilizing an optimized power system stabilizer (PSS) that has been improved. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect that wind power has on the reliability of power systems that are outfitted with PSS and also to optimize the parameters of the PSS to increase the network’s reliability in two different domains. While PSS with the ST1A excitation system is utilized to reduce the transient period and peak value, oscillations of the generator’s speed deviation can be dampened. Through the management of the relative power angle stability of the network, the major objective of PSS is to enhance the performance of the system.
