Abstract

Energy storage systems (ESS) and permanent magnet synchronous generators (PMSG) are speculated to be able to exhibit frequency regulation capabilities by adding differential and proportional control loops with different control objectives. The available PMSG kinetic energy and charging/discharging capacities of the ESS were restricted. To improve the inertia response and frequency control capability, we propose a short-term frequency support strategy for the ESS and PMSG. To this end, the weights were embedded in the control loops to adjust the participation of the differential and proportional controls based on the system frequency excursion. The effectiveness of the proposed control strategy was verified using PSCAD/EMTDC. The simulations revealed that the proposed strategy could improve the maximum rate of change of the frequency nadir and maximum frequency excursion. Therefore, it provides a promising solution of ancillary services for frequency regulation of PMSG and ESS.
