Abstract

The use of wind turbines is increasing in very high rates in many countries around the world. Studies to evaluate the impact of connecting these new generation units to the existing power systems must be done and the alternative transients program - ATP, one of the most used simulation tools for power systems transient analysis, does not contain wind generation systems in its libraries. In this paper, three types of variable speed wind generation system models are developed using ATP. The model include the representation of the wind, the turbine mechanical parts, the generator, the static converter, the control systems and the power system. Simulation results of connecting a 10 MW wind farm to a real power system are presented
