6 FAQs about [Bahrain grid forming statcom]

How stable is a wind power plant with Statcom in grid-following and grid-forming modes?

The stability behaviors of wind power plant with STATCOM in grid-following and grid-forming modes are compared. Grid-forming STATCOM provides more stability margin to wind power plants than grid-following STATCOM. In weak grids, grid-forming STATCOM gives a nearly tenfold rise in damping ratio to wind power plants in comparison with GFL control.

Can GFM STATCOM reduce grid voltage drop?

The proposed method is realized by the GFM STATCOM simulation platform with PSCAD/EMTDC, it is confirmed that the proposed method has a faster current limiting response speed when the voltage sag is larger, which can improve the supporting effect of GFM STATCOM for the grid voltage drop. 1. Introduction

What is GFM STATCOM?

GFM STATCOM generates a voltage source with set amplitude and phase according to grid demand, and the output current is automatically generated according to voltage source E and grid conditions V g, so the GFM STATCOM is equivalent to the form of voltage source with a series impedance.

Does alternating voltage control of Statcom benefit from GFM mode?

This conclusion holds true for most conditions with properly designed parameters, including different bandwidths of the alternating voltage control of STATCOM in 1∼10 Hz and phase-locked loop of grid-following STATCOM ranging from 5 to 100 Hz, which is benefited from the sufficient stability margin of GFM mode.

Is GFM-STATCOM suitable for weak grid stabilization of WPP?

As for GFM in case III, it not only provides sufficient stability margins in all conditions, but also showcases an interesting opposite behavior as GFL, i.e., the stability is enhanced as SCR reduces in this certain range, which makes GFM-STATCOM especially suitable for weak grid stabilization of WPP. Fig. 11.

Is GFM-STATCOM more suitable for stability enhancement of offshore WPPs?

The analysis is finally verified by simulation results. It is thereby concluded that, in comparison with GFL, the GFM-STATCOM is more suitable for stability enhancement of offshore WPPs.
