The past years have seen a rapid increase in the deployment of large-scale wind power plants (WPPs) in transmission grids. The dynamic interactions between wind turbines (WTs), power transmission cables, and other electrical infrastructure of WPPs pose challenges to the stability and quality of electricity supply, particularly under diverse grid conditions. The interactions … [Read more...] about Energy-Storage Enhanced STATCOMs for Wind Power Plants

Totem-Pole PFC Reliability and Performance Improvement With Advanced Controls
Totem-pole power factor correction (PFC) is a simple and highly efficient topology. It is being widely used in high-density and high-efficiency power supply design. However, engineers still face many design challenges, including PFC current reversing prevention at input voltage drop, lightning surge protection, current harmonic reduction, and ac crossover current spike … [Read more...] about Totem-Pole PFC Reliability and Performance Improvement With Advanced Controls
