Memphis Section PES Tech Talk: Distributed Energy Integration and Associated Power Quality Issues & Solutions

#PES #YP #LM #Memphis #WIE #power-quality #control #emp #harmonic-distortion #engineers #stability

Distributed energy integration to the grid creates power quality challenges like harmonic distortion, voltage fluctuations, frequency instability, reactive power imbalance, protective relay coordination issue, etc. These issues mainly stem from weather-dependent generation and power electronic converters. For example, due to random variations in wind speed, output power, frequency, and terminal voltage of wind generator fluctuate. As a result, power quality of the wind generator deteriorates. However, consumers expect constant voltage and frequency at their ends. Thus, frequency, grid voltage and distribution line power should be maintained constant. Key solutions include advanced smart inverters, energy storage systems, flexible AC transmission equipment, etc. This talk will discuss various means of control such as energy storage devices to maintain power quality of distribution grids.
