Abstract
This paper presents a comprehensive research endeavor focused on evaluating the influence of renewable energy, particularly wind power, on power quality within the context of Jordan's electrical grid. The escalating global demand for energy, coupled with the imperative to curb greenhouse gas emissions, has propelled the rapid adoption of renewable energy sources. Against this backdrop, the study aims to meticulously analyze the effects of wind energy projects on power quality parameters such as voltage fluctuations, harmonics, and power factor. Through an extensive methodology comprising data collection, rigorous analysis, and advanced simulation techniques, actionable insights are provided into the seamless integration of renewable energy into existing grid infrastructures. In this work, power quality parameters like Total Harmonic Distortion, flickers, power frequency, Crest factor, and voltage unbalance are measured at Al-Tafilah Governorate, Jordan. The significance of this study lies in its contribution to the development of strategies and guidelines essential for policymakers, engineers, and stakeholders. By fostering a deeper understanding of the interplay between renewable energy and power quality, the findings aim to facilitate the establishment of a sustainable and resilient energy system in Jordan. Beyond mitigating climate change and enhancing energy security, this research underscores the pivotal role of renewable energy in ushering in a greener, cleaner future for generations to come.
