Dynamic characteristics of a DFIG wind turbine connected to the transmission power system of Republic of Macedonia

This paper deals with dynamic characteristics of the first DFIG wind farm which will be connected to the transmission power system of Republic of Macedonia. MATLAB/SIMULINK software is used to present the dynamic characteristics of the wind farm. The DFIG wind turbine and the power system are modeled with real characteristics, like in the initial project. Results from tests short circuit on 110 kV voltage level buses and effects of immediate wind speed change will be simulated in order to define how the DFIG will react under these circumstances and which actions should be undertaken in the power system to improve power system stability and power quality.
