Identification method of all-operating-point admittance model for wind farms considering frequency-coupling characteristics

Abstract

Admittance identification is an effective tool to solve the issue of black-box admittance modeling in wind farms. However, due to the large operating range of wind farms, it is difficult to accurately identify the admittance model of wind farms under all operating conditions, which limits the research on wideband oscillation caused by the interaction between wind farms and the power grid. This paper analyses the characteristics of the frequency-coupling admittance for wind farms. It is found that the power-sharing ratio of wind turbine generators (WTGs) affects the admittance characteristic of the wind farm, which leads to a huge number of operating points for the wind farm. The all-operating-point (AOP) admittance model of wind farms considering frequency-coupling characteristics is hard to directly identify. Aiming for this problem, this paper proposes to first identify the AOP-admittance model for WTGs. Then, based on the operating points of each WTG and the network structure, the AOP-admittance model of the wind farm is obtained via the admittance aggregation and model reduction method. This proposed method solves the problem of black-box admittance modeling and addresses the problem of dimension disaster in admittance modeling for wind farms. The identified model of the wind farm can be used to accurately assess the stability of the wind power integration system under various operating conditions. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed method is verified through the admittance measurement and stability analysis of the wind farm.
