EHV power quality with renewable gen

EHV power quality with renewable gen

(OP)
Does anybody have any data about increasing harmonic penetration and possible electrical resonance in EHV transmission systems caused by utility scale renewable with nontraditional (non-synchronous) generation (Solar, PV, Wind, etc)?  

RE: EHV power quality with renewable gen

EHV can be taken relative - I'm assuming you mean something along the lines of 230kV to 735kV?  

RE: EHV power quality with renewable gen

(OP)
Actually I'm looking for possible causes of 230-500kV transmission equipment failures in utility system with large scale renewable generation interconnected. For the cases were excessive transients or/and electrical resonance may be created by concentration of multiple mechanically switched shunt reactors, shunt/series capacitors, SVCs, etc. within nontraditional (non-synchronous) generation environment.
