Impact of Wind & Solar Generation on Negative Sequence and Power Swing Protection
Speaker: Evangelos Farantatos, Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI)
This presentation first investigates the impact of wind generation on the performance of negative-sequence-based protection. In many applications, wind generators are designed to suppress negative sequence current partially or entirely. Negative sequence current suppression control may result in the misoperation of protection schemes whose operation relies on the assumption of negative sequence quantities being present in substantial levels during unbalanced faulted conditions.
