Wind Energy Systems

With the increasing demand of installing Wind Turbine/Wind parks based on various technologies of wind turbine generators (WTGs), the following research topics are carried out at Khalifa University:

• Developing stochastic model for wind energy and reducing the uncertainty of wind power generation.
• High-fidelity and precise estimation for wind power plant generation.
• Developing fast and precise grid synchronization schemes for WTGs.
• Modeling of WTGs/Wind Parks for RMS, Dynamic and Transient Studies.
• WTGs Inter-convertor oscillations and mitigation techniques.
• Standalone control strategies for wind turbine generators.
• Enhanced ancillary services for WTGs and Wind Parks in adherence of grid codes requirement.
• Integrated design and control for large scale wind power plant through VSC- HVDC and VSC-MTD integration.
• Advanced Wind Power Plant SCADA Controllers (Centralized and decentralized) and online forecasting tool to facilitate system monitoring, optimal operation and data provision.
• Energy Storage System applications for enhancing wind power plant operation with dispatching black-start capabilities.
