VINST - Vindkraft i nätåteruppbyggnad för större tillförlitlighet

Project: Research

Project Details

Description

Traditionally, only hydropower plants, fossil-fired power plants are used for blackstart of the electric power system after a blackout. Wind power is much more geographically distributed than these traditional blackstarting units, but only recently got the capability for energizing a network. The project evaluates methods for using wind turbine generators combined with battery storage for blackstart and power system restoration.
