What is it about?
This paper presents an aggregation model for a 500 MW wind farm to simplify steady-state and transient simulation studies. The aggregated modeling converts each group of wind farm components into a single equivalent representation. These groups include generators, pad mounted transformers, collector system and station transformers. Results of simulation studies are presented to show comparisons of aggregated equivalent model and detailed model of the wind farm. The results include steady-state (power flow, short circuit, contingency) and transient analyses.

Why is it important?
The main objective of this paper is the development of an aggregate model of a large-scale wind farm for steady-state and transient studies at the planning stage, where specific type of wind generators is still under study. The model represents all wind farm components including wind turbine generators, pad mounted transformers, collector system and station transformers.
Perspectives
The aggregated model is intended to be employed in future studies concerning planning of large wind farms grid connection studies.
