Abstract

Current source converter (CSC) based wind energy power conversion systems (WECS) and methods are presented in which a unified DC link current control scheme is employed to facilitate grid fault ride-through conditions, with a multiple-mode converter control system that combines the power flow control capabilities of the generator-side and grid-side converters, in which transitions between normal operation and fault condition are achieved automatically by monitoring the grid voltage without the need for, or with partial additional ride-through components.
