Review of Low Voltage Ride-Through Capabilities in Wind Energy Conversion System

The significance of low voltage ride-through (LVRT) capability in wind energy conversion systems (WECSs) is paramount for ensuring grid stability and reliability during voltage dips. This systematic review delves into the advancements, challenges, and methodologies associated with LVRT capabilities in WECSs. By synthesizing recent research findings, this review highlights technological innovations, control strategies, and regulatory requirements that influence LVRT performance. Key insights include the efficacy of various LVRT techniques, the role of grid codes in shaping LVRT standards, and the integration of advanced control algorithms to improve system resilience. The study offers a comprehensive understanding of the current landscape of LVRT in WECSs and pinpoints future research directions to optimize their performance in increasingly complex grid environments. During the LVRT process, the stator of a double-fed induction generator (DFIG) is directly linked to the power grid. When the external power grid experiences a failure, the stator flux produces a significant transient component, resulting in substantial overvoltage and overcurrent on the rotor side of the DFIG. Failure to implement preventative measures may result in damage to the converter, therefore compromising the safety and stability of how the power system functions.
