Abstract
The involvement of wind turbines operating at load shedding levels in primary frequency regulation serves as a crucial technical solution to provide high levels of inertial response capability and frequency regulation capability in power systems with significant proportions of renewable energy. Load-shedding units' frequency regulation capacity is constrained by the optimal operating speed, which prevents the utilization of the rotor's full kinetic energy and consequently limits the system's ability to provide strong inertia support. Additionally, the units are restricted by the maximum speed in the medium wind speed range, resulting in a reduced reserve capacity. The control mechanism of virtual synchronous generator (VSG) can ensure voltage stability at the machine end, and enable real-time tracking of the grid frequency, thereby imparting to wind turbines the on-grid operation characteristics of synchronous generator sets. To achieve this goal, this paper proposes a coordinated frequency control method for variable-speed variable-pitch doubly fed induction generator units based on VSG. Differentiated control strategies are employed for varying wind speed ranges, while an additional frequency control module is utilized to realize frequency regulation functionality. In conjunction with VSG, this approach enhances the inertial response of the units and strengthens their ability to support grid frequency. Simulation results indicate that the proposed control method mitigates the rate of decline in grid frequency and reduces frequency deviation, ultimately promoting grid stability. Additionally, a simulation system was designed based on the conventional four-machine two-area model to verify the effectiveness of this approach.
