China-based wind turbine manufacturer China Ming Yang Wind Power Group Ltd. says its MY-3.0MW Super-Compact Drive wind turbine generator (WTG) has passed low-voltage ride-through (LVRT) performance tests and obtained the LVRT certification.
The test was conducted by China Electric Power Research Institute (CEPRI) at the Zhangbei Wind Power Test Base in Hebei Province. CEPRI is a subsidiary research institute of the State Grid Corporation of China.
The LVRT requirement is specified under the grid code, and refers to WTGs' ability to react properly to sudden fluctuations in grid voltage and to remain connected to the grid under these abnormal conditions.
