Frequency Trajectory Planning-based Frequency Regulation Strategy for Wind Turbines Equipped with Energy Storage System

The renewable energy mobile offshore platform, which adopts the combined power supply of renewable energy and energy storage, is an important carrier for the development and utilization of marine resources. The randomness of renewable energy generation has a more prominent effect on the bus voltage stability and transient voltage deviation of the power system with small capacity and low inertia. Considering the operation and maintenance characteristics of the offshore platform, a virtual inertia control method for small‐ and medium‐sized wind turbines is proposed. Firstly, by analyzing the characteristics of the renewable energy microgrid of the unattended offshore platform, considering the operating environment with high average wind speed at sea, the mechanical inertia in the wind turbine is selected as the energy source of virtual inertia. The structure of the wind power generation unit is analyzed, and small signal modeling is carried out. A virtual inertia control method based on power droop is proposed, and the rotational inertia and the damping coefficient are obtained from the characteristics of transient and steady‐state analysis of the system. Finally, the DC microgrid experiment platform of the offshore platform is constructed, and it is verified that the proposed method makes full use of the characteristics of the offshore platform to enhance system inertia and improve the operational stability of the offshore platform DC microgrid system.

This paper proposes a coordinated frequency regulation strategy for grid‐forming (GFM) type‐4 wind turbine (WT) and energy storage system (ESS) controlled by DC voltage synchronous control (DVSC), where the ESS consists of a battery array, enabling the power balance of WT and ESS hybrid system in both grid‐connected (GC) and stand‐alone (SA) modes. The newly developed GFM framework, i.e., DVSC, is adopted in both WT and ESS, which utilizes DC voltage dynamics for synchronization purposes. In this paper, the GC mode and SA mode are transferred by changing the status of the series‐connected switch, and it is necessary to meet the grid connection conditions when the system is transferred to the GC mode, namely, voltage, frequency, and phase sequence. For the GC mode, the inertia response from WT can be realized using the reserved energy of the DC capacitor, while the ESS serves to eliminate the steady‐state frequency deviation and reduce the DC voltage fluctuation of WT using the designed secondary frequency regulation scheme. For the SA mode, the proposed strategy can keep the power balance without external power sources. The small‐signal model of the WT and ESS hybrid system is derived. The stability analysis in both GC and SA modes is fully conducted utilizing the modal analysis method, where the impacts of control parameters on stability are assessed. The performance of the proposed strategy in a weak system is evaluated. Simulation studies are carried out under various power system contingencies to verify the effectiveness of the proposed strategy and validate the correctness of the theoretical analysis.
