Abstract—In order to accommodate the increasing wind Chinese grid codes, and [9] compares US and Chinese grid power penetration in power systems grid codes for wind power codes. An important aspect is the need for harmonization of plants are being continuously updated by TSOs. In this paper grid codes in different countries [5] [6]. we review several European grid codes for wind power released from 2015-2018. Specifically, we focus on the comparison of Table 1: Reviewed grid codes the new ENTSO-E grid code Requirements for Generators, released in 2016, with national grid codes to see to what Country TSO Year EU area Ref extent these are in agreement and how this contributes towards (DK) 2016 Nordic region [10] harmonization of grid codes within Europe.

other generators) to be able to change their active power production according to set points issued by the TSO. Among the reviewed grid codes, those of National Grid and TenneT have already adopted the RfG specifications. The settings specified for the different modes are also shown in Table 3. Figure 3 shows the FSM from National Grid. With the settings specified by National Grid the fre- quency response of wind farms (and other generators) with limited frequency sensitivity mode will be activated only once the primary frequency response of generators in FSM is exhausted and the frequency is outside of the normal operating range. However, wind farms operated in FSM with the specified zero deadband will act inside the normal fre- quency range and thus provide primary frequency reserves. In contrast, with the FSM deadband specified by TenneT the Figure 3: Frequency Sensitivity Mode in UK wind farms with FSM will react only outside of the normal frequency range, which for the European synchronous area is 49.8-50.2 Hz. Thus offshore wind farms, to which [13] Table 3: Frequency sensitivity modes specified in ENTSO-E applies, are not expected to participate in the normal primary grid code frequency regulation according to TenneT.

It can be seen that the grid codes Figure 9: Generic fault-ride through profile in RfG of National Grid and TenneT have adopted these voltage regulation requirements. However, they do not require any non-zero deadband settings.

This curve specifies the required ride through time for a wind farm should not disconnect from the grid under a given voltage, so that e.g. a voltage of 0.5 pu must be a temporary voltage drop before a fault is cleared and tolerated for 0.71 s, and a voltage of 0.8 pu for 2.5 s. the voltage restored.

comprehensive list of information to be exchanged will be agreed upon between the wind farm operator and the TSO. It should be stressed that the reviewed grid codes all come from countries which have a relatively high level of wind penetration and thus have come far in setting up the technical infrastructure required to accommodate large amounts of wind power. In other systems the information available to the TSO may be more limited. For example, the Swedish TSO SvK does not have access to online active power measurements from major generators, presumably because this has not been necessary for operation [20].

VII.CONCLUSION Figure 10: National Grid fault tolerance requirement for We have reviewed several European grid codes, with focus faults longer than 140 ms on the ENTSO-E RfG [14] which was released in 2016 and is now being implemented by European TSOs.
