Environmental pollution and energy shortage have resulted in a recent strong demand for distribution networks to accept renewable clean energy. As an important part of distributed generations, dispersed wind power with its clean and flexible characteristics has been an important focus of domestic and foreign entities. In this paper, the voltage deviation model and the maximum wind power real‐time penetration model were established as the two objective functions, and the reactive power output of wind farms was considered to regulate the voltage. The harmonic search algorithm was used to solve the model, simulation test with IEEE33 node system model was carried out, and the results show that the established optimisation model as well as its solution strategy can make full use of the reactive power output of wind farms to achieve the maximum wind power consumption.
