Operation of the Microgrid with Wind Power Plant: A Case Study

Abstract

In this paper operation of the microgrid with the wind power plant is simulated using PowerWorld Simulator. Microgrid with installed photovoltaic power plants (PV), biogas power plants (BPP), and wind power plants (WPP) is considered. Energy storage is not considered in this paper. Hourly operation of the microgrid during one day is simulated through different scenarios: parallel operation with the electricity grid, islanded operation of the microgrid, and voltage control with the WPP. Results are presented and discussed at the end of the paper.
