Frequency support from photovoltaic power plants using offline maximum power point tracking and variable droop control
摘要： With higher penetration of converter-connected renewable energy sources (RES) into power systems, the successful operation of the system is challenged by significant reductions in system inertia. Presently, given the dominant share of the conventional synchronous power plant, RES power plants are not demanded to provide ancillary services. However, as RES connections increase, RES power plants will play a major role in power system operation, contributing to frequency control. This study demonstrates that photovoltaic power plants (PVPPs) can provide effectively different types of frequency support based on a power reserve and an offline maximum power point tracking (MPPT) technique. An innovative method to de-load the PVPP without significantly increasing the MPPT complexity is proposed. Results from different PVPP frequency support methods, under varying levels of photovoltaic penetration, are presented which demonstrate their capability to provide inertia support comparable to that of synchronous generators. A new variable droop control method, which releases maximum power during the inertial response and returns to fixed droop gain value after a specified time is also presented. The results from using the variable droop show that the frequency nadir and the rate-of-change-of-frequency can be significantly reduced and some power reserve still maintained after a frequency event.

摘要： When the photovoltaic and energy-storage microgrid(PV-ESM) operate under a conventional droop or virtual synchronous generator(VSG) control, the system frequency will be unstable if the load is disturbed violently. To solve the problem, the feedback loop control strategy of the ESPS with a first order differential control links of high-pass filter is proposed from the aspect of optimizing energy storage power station(ESPS) dynamic power response, and the adaptive selection basis of damping coefficient and inertia time constant is given. An improved VSG frequency adjustment strategy based on feedforward power is proposed in order to support power frequency actively by EPSP power adjustment. Taking a typical off-grid PV-ESM scenario in an industrial park as an example, the simulation results show that the proposed strategy could support frequency recovery rapidly when frequency instability induced by load mutation and ensure the quality of power supply.

[IEEE 2019 IEEE Energy Conversion Congress and Exposition (ECCE) - Baltimore, MD, USA (2019.9.29-2019.10.3)] 2019 IEEE Energy Conversion Congress and Exposition (ECCE) - Synchronous Frequency Support of Photovoltaic Power Plants with Inertia Emulation
摘要： Grid stability is one of the main concerns in renewable energies. The lack of inertia and their low capability to provide frequency support has created the need for implementing new control strategies to solve this problem. In current networks, frequency and voltage support are performed through synchronous generators, which provide an inherent grid support due to the inertia presented in their mechanical rotors. Based on the same concept, renewable energies based on power converters have introduced synchronous controllers to emulate the dynamic behavior of synchronous generators and provide voltage and frequency support. However, most synchronous control strategies integrate their controllers as an add-on firmware embedded in each power converter, without presenting a coordinated synchronous performance when several converters operate in a PV power plant. The aggregation of several power converters operating with a coordinated synchronous response would be advantageous in these cases, since they can provide a harmonic response with an automatic power distribution when grid support is required. This paper presents a synchronous control strategy for photovoltaic power plants, which manages several power converters as an aggregated synchronous system.
