Abstract
Renewable energy sources, particularly wind power, are becoming increasingly integrated into power grids. This integration of wind power into power grids can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions and provide more efficient power production. However, this integration can pose significant challenges to grid stability. This research paper presents a case study of the effectiveness of synchronous condensers (SCs) and synthetic inertia in enhancing wind-dominated power grid frequency stability. Using the Kundur 2-area power system in MATLAB/Simulink, we analyze the frequency stability of the power system with and without the deployment of SCs and synthetic inertia. Our findings demonstrate that these solutions can effectively enhance wind-dominated power grid frequency stability, making them more suitable for renewable energy integration. This research provides valuable insights into the use of these solutions in enhancing the stability of power grids with high penetration of renewable energy sources. Moreover, this research provides an opportunity to explore the potential of these solutions to revolutionize renewable energy integration in wind-dominated power grids.
