L. Rouco F.M. Echavarren

May 2008 - June 2008

Funding entity ECOENER, S. L.

The project studies the impact on the power network of the wind farms proposed by Ecoener. They will incorporate 102 MW of wind power generation to the 220 kV busbar of Tibo substation. The study also evaluates the dynamic and reactive power compensation capabilities of REPOWER MM92 wind power generators.

Research topics:
• *Steady-state: Load flows, analysis of power system constraints, optimal load flows, voltage control ancilliary service,short-circuits, protections in transmission and ditribution networks
