Abstract : Renewable energy sources are alternative
energy source, can bring new challenges when it is
connected to the power grid. Generated power from
wind energy system is always fluctuating due to the
fluctuations in the wind. According to the guidelines
specified in IEC-61400 standard (International
Electro-technical Commission) provides some norms
and measurements. The performance of the wind
turbine, power quality is determined. The power
quality measurements are-the active power, reactive
power, voltage sag, voltage swell, flicker, harmonics,
and electrical behavior of switching operation and
these are measured according to national/international
guidelines. The paper clearly shows the existence of
power quality problem due to installation of wind
turbine with the grid. In this STATCOM is used with
energy storage system (BESS) to reduce the power
quality problems. Simulation results are presented to
demonstrate the impact of integration of wind
generating system with the grid and the effectiveness
of the STATCOM control scheme in minimizing the
impact.FFT analysis carried out for the source current
shows that the THD is considerably reduced and is
clearly within limits imposed by standards with
STATCOM connected at point of common
coupling(PCC). The STATCOM control scheme for
the grid connected wind energy generation system to
improve the power quality is simulated using
MATLAB/SIMULINK in power system block set.
