Abstract

This paper analyses operating characteristic of high temperature superconducting magnetic energy storage (HTS SMES) for frequency stabilization of dispersed power generation system. The wind power generation system (WPGS) fluctuates due to wind speed variation and affects the frequency and voltage fluctuations of the utility. SMES is probably a key technology to overcome these fluctuations. To stabilize power system frequency, a large-scale HTS SMES is connected to the terminal of the WPGS. The authors analysed the load side frequencies using two different configurations of SMES, one consisting of a single magnet and the other of a dual magnet. From the simulation results, it can be concluded that the SMES is a useful device for stabilizing the power system frequency fluctuations, and a dual magnet type SMES is more effective for frequency stabilizing but exhibits more AC loss due to the increased operating current than a single magnet type.
