Abstract

The combined generator system with the wind and wave power can share the off-shore platform and therefore have the advantage of constructing the transmission system as well as the power conversion system. The established wind power generator systems do output determination by following the transmission system operator's directions and control the turbine by focusing at PCC, but when connected with the wave-power generator; it is needed to do the complex control. Especially, since the method and impact of active power control are different, it is required to distribute demanding power and responsibility to each turbine by considering the grid condition. In this paper, the control system is formed to do output determination of the combined generator system by paying attention to reactive power reserve of utility grid with the analysis of the controllable elements of the wind and wave power generator. And the comparison with the existing system is carried out based on the real system information. Through using the PSCAD/EMTDC simulation, the suitability of the new control technique of the combined system is estimated by proposing the active power control according to the reference signal of TSO and the reactive power capability followed by it.
