Flicker Mitigation by Individual Pitch Control of Variable Speed Wind Turbines With DFIG
Dueto the wind speed variation, wind shear and tower shadow effects, grid connected wind turbines are the sources of power fluctuations which may produce flicker during continuous operation. This paper presents a model of an MW-level variablespeed wind turbine with a doubly fed induction generatorto investigate
the flicker emission and mitigation issues. An individual pitch control (IPC) strategy is proposed to reduce the flicker emission at different wind speed conditions. The IPC scheme is proposed and the individual pitch controller is designed according to the generator active power and the azimuth angle of the wind turbine. The simulations are performed on the NREL (National Renewable Energy Laboratory) 1.5-MW upwind reference wind turbine model. Simulation results show that damping the generator active power
by IPC is an effective means for flicker mitigation of variable speed wind turbines during continuous operation.
