Virtual synchronous generator (VSG) technology is an effective way to solve the problem of insufficient rotational inertia in renewable energy power systems, and it has significant advantages in improving the acti.
In response to the shortcomings of the classic VSG control strategy mentioned above, this paper proposes a frequency modulation control strategy with additional system active power constraints for PV-energy storage systems (hereinafter referred to as active power constraint control strategy).
This work was supported by the New Power System Major Science and Technology Research Project of State Grid Hebei Electric Power Company Ltd. (kj2022-058) (Research on control strategy for improving the frequency response characteristics of photovoltaic and energy storage systems based on VSG control).
A series of characteristics of synchronous generators, such as network frequency modulation voltage regulation and inertia damping, can effectively improve the new energy PV power generation system and promote the new energy consumption.
A frequency modulation control strategy for VSG systems with additional active power constraints is proposed by overlaying the active power changes of photovoltaic and energy storage systems through appropriate functional relationships into the control loop of synchronous generators.
Therefore, PV panels can no longer provide additional active power in grid frequency events, so a certain capacity of energy storage and corresponding energy conversion device should be configured in the PV-VSG system architecture to realize the PV-VSG's self-frequency modulation in response to grid frequency fluctuations [ 14 ].
Reference (Meng et al., 2022) suggests that in classic PV-energy storage micro-grid systems, although the VSG control strategy can provide some inertial support for the power grid, its drawbacks lie in slow adjustment speed and the problem of large frequency fluctuations.
