Abstract

The main scope of this research project is the evaluation of the frequency and time domain harmonic stability evaluation methods in converter rich offshore wind power plants (OWPPs). In order to do this it is considered sensible to make identical representations of the passive components such as the export cable and the external power system in the two domains. This ensures that the possible discrepancies in the obtained results are related to the way the power electronic devices (PED), including their respective control systems, are represented in the two domains. The purpose of this chapter is to develop suitable methods for modelling the passive components in the two domains as a number of challenges were encountered in the preparation of this work.
