Abstract

Introduction

A frequency control strategy is proposed based on additional virtual synchronous generator technology for voltage source converter-based multi-terminal high voltage direct current systems with wind power.

Methods

This strategy addresses the system's inertia reduction and frequency stability issues caused by integrating large amounts of wind power through multi-terminal DC transmission. Firstly, the virtual synchronous generator mathematical model is constructed based on the system structure. Secondly, for the problem of zero rotational inertia of voltage source converter in a flexible DC transmission system, based on the droop control method of the converter station, additional virtual synchronous control generation technology is applied to simulate the droop characteristics of the synchronous generator by adding virtual rotational inertia, so that the converter has the inertial response of synchronous generator to realize primary frequency regulation.

Results

Finally, the simulation is verified on the PSCAD/ EMTDC platform with an example of a three-terminal parallel MTDC transmission system.

Conclusion

The analyzed results demonstrate that the virtual synchronous generator control strategy is very valuable and useful for improving the frequency performance of the system.
