Abstract
Affected by factors such as the inverse distribution of power sources and loads in the province, and the mismatch between the construction of load center power sources and load growth, the problem of voltage stability in central and southern Hunan is prominent, which mainly restricts the thermal power maximum operating capacity of the Hunan Power Grid. Under the heavy load mode, the hydro power units and thermal power units operating in the province need to reserve a certain amount of spinning reserve to response the voltage stability problems in central and southern Hunan. Thus, it leads to insufficient power supply during peak load periods. In recent years, the grid load has maintained rapid growth, and the increase in power sources is mainly the wind power. Affected by the anti-peak-shaving characteristics of wind power, the lack of wind power has aggravated the problem of insufficient power supply. Actually, the wind turbine is in a hot standby state during standby/backup, and its grid-connected converter is still in a grid-connected state within four hours. Besides, the continuous running SVG in the wind farm booster station can still be used temporarily. The above devices can provide reactive power support to the power grid during the transient process. Therefore, this paper takes the southern Hunan region as an example, and quantified the reduced thermal power requirement reserve by analyzing the reactive power support effect of the grid-connected wind farms. In this way, the power supply capacity can be improved.
