ABSTRACT
Renewable energy units are required to have reliable fault ride-through

capability to prevent large-scale disconnection of renewable energy plants due to grid
faults. Since synchronous generators have better voltage and current resistance
capabilities, one of the advantages of renewable energy connected to the grid through
the motor-generator Pair (MGP) system is the isolation of grid faults, which is totally
different from existing fault ride-through methods. First, the structure and
mathematical model of the MGP system are introduced in this paper. Then, a novel
control method for the MGP system based on DC link voltage feedback is given,
which is very important for fault ride-through in the control power balance on both
sides of the DC bus. The isolation mechanism, damping and reactive power support
functions of the MGP system on grid faults are analysed by means of the rotor motion
equation and phasor diagram of synchronous machine. A 5-kW MGP simulation and
experimental platforms are built to verify the isolation and protection effects of the
MGP system on a renewable energy generation system during the transient processes
of grid voltage sag, overvoltage and multiple voltage sags. The results demonstrate
that the MGP system can isolate grid faults on the generator side, while the oscillation
amplitude on the motor side is much smaller, and the generator can provide strong
reactive power support to the grid during three grid faults.
