Abstract: Large scale wind power integration has influnece on local grid voltage. With the scale increase of the wind power capacity, the analysis of voltage influence with wind power integration becomes very important. Taking wind power integration in Hami area in Xinjiang as example, the bus voltage level in typical operating modes after wind power integration is analyzed in detail. The wind turbine simulation model is established with consideration of wind speed under wake effect. The voltages on key nodes are analyzed with real time power flow results. Two methods, namely reactor and SVC compensation, are discussed and simulated in order to improve voltage quality with wind power integration.

Key words: wind power farm, voltage analysis, reactive power compensation
