    Abstract

    This paper proposes a new approach of providing ancillary services to AC and DC grids from offshore wind power plants (OWPPs), connected through multi-terminal HVDC network. A coordinated control scheme where OWPP’s AC grid frequency modulated according to DC grid voltage variations is used to detect and provide the ancillary service requirements of both AC and DC grids, is proposed in this paper. In particular,
    control strategies for onshore frequency control, fault ridethrough support in the onshore grid, and DC grid voltage control are considered. The proposed control scheme involves only local measurements and therefore avoids the need of communication infrastructure otherwise required for
    communication based control, and thus increases the reliability of the control system. The effectiveness of the proposed control scheme is demonstrated on a MTDC connected wind power system developed in DIgSILIENT PowerFactory.
