Abstract

A fast frequency controller (FFC) for wind power plants (WPPs), which produces a temporary overloading power reference based on frequency deviation and rate of change of frequency, is proposed in this paper. Contrary to standard controllers proposed in the literature, the gains of the FFC are optimized for different wind speeds ensuring an improved frequency control from WPPs over the whole wind speed range. Two options for temporary frequency control implementations from WPPs are analyzed and compared. Moreover, the impact of mechanical, electrical and control limitations at different wind speeds and its effect on frequency control is discussed in the paper. Results show that by optimizing the gains, an improved frequency control can be obtained compared to standard controllers which apply a fixed gain over whole the wind speed range.
