Abstract:

There is a significant disparity between the supply of electricity and the demand for it, which causes load shedding to occur in rural areas of the Indian state of Maharashtra. Therefore, to address this issue, it has been suggested that utilising additional renewable wind energy in areas with significant wind potential should be considered. If a large wind energy system is coupled to a weak grid, power quality problems will occur. As a consequence, it is essential to conduct studies on grid-connected wind farms to deepen one's understanding of Power Quality problems, their causes, and their analysis. To analyse the wind energy system in terms of the power quality (PQ) influence on the system and its management during induction generator and induction motoring modes at constant speed, variable speed, and gust speed, technical, economic, and mathematical analyses have been utilised. Emphasis has been placed on analysing power quality issues in grid-connected wind farms.

Keywords: Power Deficiency; Renewable Energy; Quality Characteristics; Mathematical Analysis; Wind Energy System Analysis; Power Quality Management; Grid-Connected Wind Farms.
