Abstract: This paper proposes a novel simulation method of wind power generation system (WPGS) using PSCAD/EMTDC. The pitch control-based rotation speed control scheme of turbine under variable wind speed is implemented. For the purpose of achieving effective and user-friendly simulation method for utility interactive (grid connected) WPGS, real weather condition-based WPGS simulation (RW–WPGS) is performed using PSCAD/EMTDC. It is not easy, in general, to consider the RW conditions in the WPGS simulation using the EMTP or PSPICE type of simulators. External parameters of the RW conditions, however, are necessary to improve the simulation accuracy.
