Strategy of Wind-Storage Combined System Participating in Power System Secondary Frequency Regulation Based on Model Predictive Control

Abstract

With the increasing penetration of wind power in power grids, it is necessary for wind storage joint farms to participate in power grid frequency modulation to maintain frequency stability of the power grid. By analyzing the mechanical characteristics of the wind turbine and the operation characteristics of the energy storage system, this paper determines the adjustability of the wind turbine power output in the pitch angle load shedding operation mode, and proposes a control strategy for the wind farm with an energy storage system to participate in the secondary frequency regulation of the power grid based on model predictive control (MPC). It establishes a prediction model for pitch angle control of the wind farm and an electrochemical energy storage system, optimizing the active power output of the wind turbine and the energy storage system, and better reducing the wind energy loss based on frequency regulation. The pitch angle control is further corrected based on the difference between the active power command value of the superior system and the actual power output of the wind turbine, so that the wind turbine can better track the power command value of the superior system during secondary frequency regulation, quickly respond to the frequency changes, reduce the dynamic frequency deviation, avoid load rejection due to too low frequency drop, and complete the task of secondary frequency regulation. The simulation results show that under the control strategy proposed in this paper, the controllable secondary frequency regulation ability of the wind turbine and the characteristics of fast response and accurate tracking of the energy storage system are comprehensively considered, the active power command issued by the superior system is better tracked, and the task of the wind farm including the energy storage system participating in the secondary frequency regulation is realized.
