Review of the Analysis and Suppression for High-Frequency Oscillations of the Grid-Connected Wind Power Generation System

Abstract

High-frequency oscillation (HFO) of grid-connected wind power generation systems (WPGS) is one of the most critical issues in recent years that threaten the safe access of WPGS to the grid. Ensuring the WPGS can damp HFO is becoming more and more vital for the development of wind power. The HFO phenomenon of wind turbines under different scenarios usually has different mechanisms. Hence, engineers need to acquire the working mechanisms of the different HFO damping technologies and select the appropriate one to ensure the effective implementation of oscillation damping in practical engineering. This paper introduces the general assumptions of WPGS when analyzing HFO, systematically summarizes the reasons for the occurrence of HFO in different scenarios, deeply analyses the key points and difficulties of HFO damping under different scenarios, and then compares the technical performances of various types of HFO suppression methods to provide adequate references for engineers in the application of technology. Finally, this paper discusses possible future research difficulties in the problem of HFO, as well as the possible future trends in the demand for HFO damping.
