Abstract & Overview

In Germany 18 GW wind power will have been installed by the end of 2005. Until 2020, this figure reaches the 50 GW mark. Based on the results of recent studies and on the experience with existing wind projects modification of the existing grid code for connection and operation of wind farms in the high voltage grid is necessary. The paper discusses main issues of the suggested requirements by highlighting major changes and extensions. The topics considered are fault ride-through, grid voltage maintenance respective voltage control, system monitoring and protection as well as retrofitting of old units. The new requirements are defined taking into account some new developments in wind turbine technologies which should be utilized in the future to meet grid requirement. Monitoring and system protection is defined under the aspect of sustainability of the measures introduced
