Overview

An expert discussion of grid code compliance for renewable energy power plants In Grid Code Compliance Studies for Renewable Power Plants, a team of accomplished engineers delivers a comprehensive discussion of renewable energy power plants, with a strong focus on solar and wind energy generation. The authors explain how renewable energy is integrated into our electric power systems, detailing the components and configurations needed to connect with the grid while satisfying grid code standards. The book addresses the modeling of electrical equipment, including transmission lines, cables, and power transformers used for grid interconnection. It also covers both steady-state and dynamic analysis, like voltage, power, and frequency requirements, as well as fault and harmonics analysis for solar and wind energy generation. Readers will also find: An introduction to the technical requirements of various countries' grid codes Simulation examples using software like Digsilent PowerFactory Practical examples using power quality analyzers Examples for verification of harmonic requirements as per grid code using simulation as well as practical on-site measurement using power quality analyzers Real-world examples and case studies for grid code compliance for solar photovoltaic and wind power plants Perfect for system operators and power plant developers, Grid Code Compliance Studies for Renewable Power Plants will also benefit engineering students with an interest in electrical and electronics engineering.
