Impacto da Geração Eólica na Qualidade da Energia Elétrica

Abstract

The growing concern with the environment and with the production of sustainable energy is characterized by the increasing insertion of wind generation plants in the energy matrices of many countries. However, it is necessary to relate the technical and regulatory requirements involved in the issue of connecting wind power generation systems to existing electrical networks. With this purpose, the article aims to identify some parameters of Electric Power Quality in Wind Turbines and their impacts when aggregated in large Wind Power Plants. In addition, real impacts of the Connection of Wind Power Plants on the Quality of Energy in the Electric System are presented, under the methodology of evaluating the impact from the perspective of the National Electric System Operator - ONS, with Electric Energy Quality Measurement Campaigns. In this way, we seek to understand how regulatory agencies in the electricity sector determine that wind turbines work in a safe and controlled way.
