Wind Farm SSO Events in Real World
Wind Farm SSO in Real World
 In Oct. 2009, ERCOT reported a SSO in wind-integrated system, triggered
by a single line-to-ground fault.
 A NREL report in 2013 presents several SSO incidents recorded by wind
power plants of Oklahoma Gas & Electric Company.
 China Jibei Power Grid also encounters SSO induced by wind power
integration.

Basic Characteristics of Wind Farm SSO
Characteristics of Wind Farm SSO
 Electrical oscillation typically in the frequency range of
20 – 50 Hz.
 Caused by interactions among wind generators,
controllers of power electronic devices, and series
compensated network.
 Can be difficult to filter since the oscillation frequency
may be close to synchronous frequency.
 DFIG-based wind turbine are most sensitive to SSO
among all kinds of wind turbines.

Sensitivity Analysis for SSO Modes
 22.06 Hz mode is sensitive to network parameters and DFIG converter controller parameters.
 8.09 Hz mode is sensitive to DFIG parameters and network parameters.
 1.27 Hz mode is sensitive to torsional system parameters, network parameters and controller parameters.
 Network inductor and capacitor values are of high sensitivities in all three sub-synchronous modes.
 Parameters in current control loops of converter controllers have higher sensitivities over torque control loops.
 DFIG rotor speed (determined by wind speed) has significant influence on all three modes.

Conclusions
Conclusions
 What Happened: Sub-synchronous oscillation happens in windintegrated power system.
 Why It Occurred: Inappropriate operating conditions, seriescompensated network parameters as well as DFIG converter controller
parameters .
 How To Eliminate: Eigenvalue adjustment based on sensitivity analysis
and parameter tuning (including DFIG converter controller gains and
network compensation level).
Future Work
 Extend sensitivity analysis to multi-machine systems.
 Design optimal mitigation control strategies for wind farm SSO.
