Stability enhancement of wind power integrated system using PID controlled SVC and Power System Stabilizer

The demand for Electricity is increasing day by day due to increase in population and industrialization. New power plants will be required to keep up with that increasing demand. In recent years, the extraction of power from the wind has become a recognized industry due to its simple economics and clean energy. But the ability of a power system to absorb available wind energy and maintain the system reliability and stability is reduced as the wind penetration in the system is increased [1]. Also the availability of wind power is not continuous as it depends on climatic conditions. To overcome these limitations it is desirable to coordinate the operation of wind power with fast responding conventional generating units.
