Power smoothing method of PMSG based grid integrated wind energy conversion system using BESS/DSTATCOM

<p>The output of the PMSG based wind energy conversion system (WECS) is fluctuating in nature due to intermittency of wind speed. The distribution static synchronous compensator (DSTATCOM) incorporated with the battery energy storage system (BESS) is used to smooth the power produced from wind generator system. The control strategy of BESS/DSTATCOM and its integration to mitigate the power fluctuations of grid connected WECS is presented....
