摘要:Wind power plants (WPPs) are required to provide primary frequency regulation services when a high proportion of wind power is connected to the grid. The reserve power of wind turbine generators (WTGs), including rotor kinetic energy and deloading power, is determined by its current rotor speed and active power, thus, different frequency regulation levels of WTGs will be formed because of the variable wind speed and the wake effect in a WPP. This article proposes an adaptive frequency control strategy considering releasable reserve power that can enhance the frequency regulation capacity in the permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG)-based WPP. The inertial control gains of frequency controller for PMSGs are adjusted adaptively, resting with the releasable kinetic energy, which is a function of current rotor speed. Moreover, primary frequency control gains are adjusted adaptively, resting with the releasable deloading power, which is a function of the current active power, thus, a PMSG operating at a higher rotor speed and active power can release more rotor kinetic energy and deloading power to provide greater frequency regulation capability. The proposed adaptive frequency control strategy is tested using a PSCAD/EMTDC simulator. The simulation analysis indicates that the reserve power of PMSGs in WPP can be utilized effectively while ensuring their stable operation. Meanwhile, the frequency regulation capability would be further enhanced.
