  1. 1. The Dynamic Impact of Large Wind Farms on Power System Stability

    Author : Katherine Elkington; Mehrdad Ghandhari; Ana Estanqueiro; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : As the installed capacity of wind power increases across the world, its impact on power systems is becoming more important. To ensure the reliable operation of a power system which is significantly fed by wind power, the dynamics of the system must be understood. READ MORE

    Author : Katherine Elkington; Lennart Söder; Evert Agneholm; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electric power engineering; Elkraftteknik;

    Abstract : The rapid development of wind power technology is reshaping conventional power grids in many countries across the world. As the installed capacity of wind power increases, its impact on power grids is becoming more important. READ MORE

  3. 3. Grid frequency stability from a hydropower perspective

    Author : Elin Dahlborg; Per Norrlund; Urban Lundin; Linn Saarinen; Katherine Elkington; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Frequency control; frequency stability; grid codes; hydropower; inertia; Kaplan unit; model validation; Engineering Science with specialization in Science of Electricity; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektricitetslära;

    Abstract : Many AC grids suffer from decreased frequency stability due to less system inertia. This has increased the risk of large-scale blackouts. This thesis and its papers address the frequency stability problem from a hydropower perspective.Grid frequency stability assessments often require accurate system inertia estimates. READ MORE
