This project involved comprehensive grid compliance and power system studies for a large scale solar power plant with an installed capacity of 534 MW. The assignment was undertaken to ensure reliable integration of inverter based renewable generation into the transmission network while meeting applicable grid code requirements.

The scope included development of detailed power system models representing the solar plant and its grid interface. Studies were carried out to evaluate steady state performance, dynamic behaviour during grid disturbances and overall power quality performance. Key analyses included dynamic inverter modelling, fault ride through assessment, and evaluation of voltage and frequency response under various operating scenarios.

The project also included assessment of power quality parameters to ensure that harmonic distortion, voltage variations and other inverter related impacts remained within acceptable limits for secure grid operation.
