An Offshore Wind Generation Scheme with a


High-Voltage Hybrid Generator, HVDC
Interconnections, and Transmission
Introduction:
Off-Shore wind generation has attracted considerable research and
industrial attention over the past decade. To-date studies have
investigated many areas related to wind generation including, but not
limited to, the control and stability of wind farms, power electronic
converters for the turbine-generator power-trains and DC grids for wind
generation. The high-voltage DC (HVDC) system reduces the number of
voltage source converters (VSC) in the system by using a higher rated
VSC for a group of wind turbines. However, such a scheme results in
lower (electrical) control functionality at the individual turbines. DC
systems have been proposed for wind generation schemes, such as a
series DC interconnection system using DC/DC converters, ABB Wind
former and a system of parallel DC interconnections. The DC grid
proposed employs DC/DC converters with a so-called single active
bridge (SAB) topology. Other topologies for high-voltage, high power
DC/DC converters have also been proposed including a dual active
bridge (DAB) DC/DC converter, DC/DC converter based on two
resonant circuits and inductor-capacitor-inductor (LCL) DC/DC
converters.

A new offshore high-voltage dc (HVDC) wind generation scheme


is proposed. The scheme implements a high-voltage hybrid generator
(HG) as well as HVDC interconnection and transmission systems. The
turbine power train of the proposed system is compared with a typical
system installed in a commercial wind farm. The analyses demonstrate
improvements in system losses and, hence, efficiency, power-train
hardware, including cable system mass and, importantly, a reduction in
major component count and installed power electronics in the nacelle
and turbine tower, features that lead to reduced capital cost and
maintenance. The resulting power conversion system is more simplified
and more amenable to higher voltage implementation since it is not
constrained by existing state-of-art power-electronic voltagesource
converter structures. Voltage control is facilitated via dc/dc converters
located away from the turbine tower.

Advantages:

Reduced system losses.


Improved efficiency.
Low cost.

Applications:
Wind farms.
