Abstract: This paper presents the effect of high wind penetration, grid strengthening and compensation on steady state operating point of a power system interfaced with Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG). A model of DFIG to interface with the load flow program is presented. A MATLAB program is developed and effectiveness of developed program is tested in a standard IEEE-9 bus system, interfaced with DFIG at ninth bus. The impact of varying wind velocity in cases of high wind penetration, grid strengthening and compensation on the steady state behavior of the grid connected DFIG system is studied and the results are presented.
Keywords: Doubly fed induction generator, High wind penetration, Power flow analysis.
