Project of Grid Code Compliance Testing for Wind Power Plant (WPP) Čibuk 1 assumed following activities:
- Support in the process of obtaining necessary technical documentation regarding WPP Čibuk 1 which is requested by the Serbian Transmission System Operator - EMS AD, such as data related to measurement devices, SCADA systems, technical characteristics of GE2.75-120 wind turbines, WPP control possibilities
- Development of detailed Test protocol in line with EMS’s “Grid Code compliance testing procedure for generation facilities”
- Technical support during compliance testing
- Validation of the simulation model of the entire WPP Čibuk 1 by comparing the responses obtained from actual testing with the responses obtained through software simulations.
Test protocol for WPP Čibuk 1 Grid Code compliance testing assumes following tests:
- Relay protection test
- Synchronization test
- Active power control test (active power control, frequency control, active power ramp rate)
- Voltage control test (voltage control, reactive power control, power factor control, reactive power capability)
- Fault Ride Through capability test
- Power Quality test
- Signals, communication and control test
Type of services provided:
- Support in the process of obtaining, systematization and delivery of the WPP technical documentation
- Development of detailed WPP Test protocol
- Technical support during the WPP compliance testing
- Validation of the WPP simulation model
