With the development of science and technology, the cost of offshore wind power development and transmission has gradually decreased, making offshore wind power technology a research hotspot. The installed capacity has been increasing year by year. China has abundant offshore wind energy resources, which are much richer than those on land and are available for exploitation. Offshore wind speeds are stable and do not produce harmful substances. Therefore, studying the transient voltage stability of offshore wind power grid-connected systems to improve the utilization efficiency of offshore wind power and protect the ecological environment is critical. After large-scale wind power is connected to the grid, ensuring the stability of the system's transient voltage becomes crucial. This paper aims to deeply study the transient voltage stability of offshore wind farm grid-connected systems, providing theoretical support for the subsequent design and operation of offshore wind farms. A simulation model of a typical power system integrated with offshore wind farms was established using PSAT. Relevant transient voltage stability indices were calculated, and the impact of varying wind speeds on the transient voltage stability of the grid-connected system was investigated. Static Var Compensators (SVC) and Static Synchronous Compensators (STATCOM) were installed for comparative analysis. The results demonstrate that excessively low wind speeds degrade the system's transient stability, and the installation of SVC provides superior improvement in transient voltage stability compared to STATCOM.
