Wind Farm Solution | Connection to the GridAchieving improved reliabilityand efficiency at once97%The amount ofavailability SchneiderElectric can guaranteefor your wind farminstallation.25%The reductionin operating andcapital expensesyou can realizethrough powerfactor correction/harmonic mitigation.A solution to connect you to the gridand extend the life of your equipmentConnecting to the power grid brings withit a unique set of challenges: surges, dips,distortions, and, of course, stringent grid coderequirements. Even small shifts of power flowscan trip circuit breakers, sending larger loadsonto neighbouring lines and causing chainreaction failures.For those not from electrical backgrounds,solving these problems can be a dauntingproposition. And yet, bringing clean,reliable power to your installation isabsolutely necessary.Fortunately, being the global specialist inenergy management, we at Schneider Electrichave the solution — the solution to relievethat grid-induced anxiety, bring you theoptimized reliability you need, andguarantee 99.5 percent availability.The solution begins with SF6 insulatedmetal-enclosed switchgear, which isdesigned to ensure maximum safety ina reduced-space environment. Its designalso ensures that it is unaffected by theenvironment, enabling a superior continuityof service.In terms of grid code requirements, we designand provide everything you need to comply,from fixed LV and MV power factor solutionsto real-time compensation systems. Thesesystems, which include harmonic mitigation,provide several benefits that can be translateddirectly into financial savings for both theinvestor and the user:>> Up to 25 percent reduction is commonlyachievable in both capital andoperational expenses>> Significant reduction in downtime>> Extended equipment lifetime>> Minimized system lossesand demand power>> Reduced overloading on the electricalsystem, thereby releasing useable capacityAll this adds up to improved competitivenessof your business. And, since such measuresare now all but essential for operating a safeand successful installation, the time has neverbeen better to take these precautions againstan unreliable grid.Bringing clean, reliable power to yourinstallation is absolutely necessary.16 | Schneider Electric Solutions for Wind Power
