Energies 2021, 14, 4626.http://hdl.handle.net/10919/104613Integration of wind energy resources into the grid creates several challenges for power system dynamics. More specifically, Type-3 wind turbines are susceptible to subsynchronous control interactions (SSCIs) when they become radially connected to a series-compensated transmission line. SSCIs can cause disruptions in power generation and can result in significant damage to wind farm (WF) components and equipment. This paper proposes an approach to mitigate SSCIs using an online frequency scan, with optimized phase angles of voltage harmonic injection to maintain steady-state operation, to modify the controllers or the operating conditions of the wind turbine. The proposed strategy is simulated in PSCAD/EMTDC software on the IEEE second benchmark model for subsynchronous resonance. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of this strategy by ensuring oscillations do not grow.application/pdfenCreative Commons Attribution 4.0 Internationaldoubly fed induction generatorpower system transientssubsynchronous control interactionseries compensationwind farmsArticle - Refereed2021-08-06https://doi.org/10.3390/en14154626
