High Speed Medium Voltage CHP System with Advanced Grid Support
The project was a collaboration between Clemson University and TECO Westinghouse Motor Company. The goal of the project was to develop a medium voltage commercial grid-tied system with advanced grid support functions. Current state-of-the-art in medium voltage, multi-megawatt power electronic systems do not support advanced grid functions, traditionally due to power electronic limitations and required applications. The developed system is capable of interacting with the power system at the distribution level to efficiently integrate gas turbine generation systems or any other ac generation system with up to 20MWe of power production capacity. This project demonstrated a high level of technical readiness of the 1MW, 500Hz, 15000 RPM high frequency Combined Heat and Power (CHP) generator and electric machine system, utilizing advanced grid support functions required by IEEE Std. 1547-2018.
