ENERCON Main Control Unit(MCU)- For wind power plants
|
Individual ENERCON wind farms functioning similar to conventional power plants have successfully been in operation and integrated in existing grid structures for many years. It is more and more common to find several wind farms connected to a central point of common coupling to form wind power plants. Since installed power output is high, these plants usually feed power into high-performance transmission grids. ENERCON’s MAIN CONTROL UNIT (MCU) assumes centralized open-loop and closed-loop control of a wind power plant. It takes over typical communication and data transfer tasks to grid control systems and load dispatching centers fulfilling complex technical grid connection regulations for wind power plants.
ENERCON's MAIN CONTROL UNIT (MCU) comes a as module. Each application is customized with features best suited to the project.

Depending on requirements ENERCON’s MAIN CONTROL UNIT (MCU) has different interfaces to connect to the grid control systems. Bottleneck management for wind power plants is yet another feature part in addition to reactive power management, or the integration of switchgear assemblies or entire substations into the wind power plant.

Typical Requirements For Wind Power Plants In Transmission Grids
- Wind turbines should be able to remain connected to the grid without power reduction even if considerable voltage and frequency deviations occur
- If voltage dips occur due to grid problems, wind turbines should remain connected to the grid
for a defined period
- Short circuit current feeding may be demanded during a grid failure
- After a fault has been remedied, a wind farm should resume power feed as quickly as possible
within a specified maximum time range
- Wind farms should be able to operated with reduced power output without any time restrictions
- For coordinated load distribution in the grid, the increase in power output (power gradient), for example when the wind farm is started up, should be able to be restricted in accordance with the grid operator’specifications
- Wind farms should be able to contribute reserve energy within the grid. If grid frequency increases,the power output of a wind farm should be reduced
- If necessary, wind farms should be able to contribute to maintaining voltage stability in the grid by supplying or accepting reactive power
- Wind farms should be able to be integrated in the grid control system for remote monitoring and control of all wind turbines in the grid
