Abstract:Droop-based fast frequency response (FFR) control of wind turbines can improve the frequency performance of power systems with high penetration of wind power. Explicitly formulating the feasible region of the droop-based FFR controller parameters can allow system operators to conveniently assess the feasibility of FFR controller parameter settings to comply with system frequency security, and efficiently tune and optimize FFR controller parameters to meet frequency security requirements. However, the feasible region of FFR controller parameters is inherently nonlinear and implicit because the power point tracking controllers of wind turbine would counteract the effect of FFR controllers. To address this issue, this letter proposes a linear feasible region formulation method, where frequency regulation characteristics of wind turbines, the dead band, and reserve limits of generators are all considered. The effectiveness of the proposed method and its application is demonstrated on a 10-machine power system.
