Abstract

Currently the wind power plant simulation system has been developed by various methods as an effort to optimize energy derived from wind power. This paper proposes a wind power simulator using wind speed datasets to produce electrical energy. The wind turbine simulator consists of a generator driven by an induction motor where the speed of the induction motor is controlled using a variable speed drive. To generate electrical energy based on the dataset used a PC that is connected to a variable speed drive through modbus communication assisted by a computer programming language as the user interface. Furthermore, the output from the wind power simulator is connected to the grid tie inverter to be integrated in the microgrid system. The performance test results of the simulator show that the characteristics of the wind power simulator are in accordance with the characteristics of the actual wind power plant and the power generated by the wind power simulator is 50.6 watts, equivalent to wind speeds of 5.1 m/s.
