Abstract

Wind power industry is developing rapidly, more and more wind farms are being connected into power systems. Integration of large scale wind farms into power systems presents some challenges that must be addressed, such as system operation and control, system stability, and power quality. This paper describes modern wind power systems, presents requirements of wind turbine connection and discusses the possible control methods for wind turbines to meet the specifications
