| Abstract: | The growing share of distributed energy resources in the power system increases the number of power quality issues. The variable nature of their generation contributes to voltage fluctuations. This paper proposes a method for compensating voltage fluctuations utilising reactive power generated by a doubly fed induction generator (DFIG). The proposed method was first evaluated using a simulation model developed in the Matlab Simulink R2025a environment and subsequently validated experimentally under laboratory conditions. The results obtained are highly satisfactory, with the compensation time in laboratory tests not exceeding 500 ms. Since DFIGs are used in approximately 50% of wind power plants and the implementation of the proposed approach does not require additional hardware—only modifications to the generator control software—the method appears highly promising. It offers the possibility of rapid deployment without incurring significant costs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
