Distributed Optimal Control of Large-Scale Wind Farm Clusters. Optimal Active and Reactive Power Control, and Fault Ride Through. Wind Energy Engineering

  • Book

  • March 2025
  • Elsevier Science and Technology
  • ID: 6006225
Distributed Optimal Control of Large-Scale Wind Farm Clusters: Optimal Active and Reactive Power Control, and Fault Ride Through explores the latest advances in distributed optimal control of large-scale wind farm clusters, also describing distributed optimal control techniques for high voltage ride through (HVRT). The control schemes can enable wind farm clusters to deliver the required active and reactive power for the secure operation of future renewable based power systems. Both mathematical formulations and algorithm details are provided in the book, with MATLAB codes in order to replicate and implement the distributed optimal control schemes. A volume in the Elsevier Wind Energy Engineering Series, this is a valuable resource for all those with an interest in the operation, control, and integration of wind power plants, wind farms, and electricity grids, both at research and operational levels. This includes researchers, faculty, scientists, engineers, R&D, and other industry professionals, as well as graduate and postgraduate students studying and working in wind energy.
