Coordinated Frequency Modulation Control Strategy of Wind Power and Energy Storage Considering Mechanical Load Optimization

Abstract

When a doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) participates in primary frequency modulation by rotor kinetic energy control, the torque of the generator is changed sharply and the mechanical load pressure of the shaft increases rapidly, which aggravates the fatigue damage of shafting. In order to alleviate the fatigue load of shafting, energy storage was added in the primary frequency modulation of a wind turbine, and a coordinated frequency modulation control strategy of wind power and energy storage based on fuzzy control was proposed. The wind-storage frequency modulation power command was allocated to reduce the response speed of the wind turbine to alleviate the load pressure on the shafting by the fuzzy controller considering the rotor speed range and the state of energy storage charge, and the remaining demand power was supplemented by energy storage. Finally, the joint simulation model based on GH Bladed–Matlab was used to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy. Compared with the traditional integrated control of virtual inertia, the proposed method can reduce the load pressure and fatigue damage of the shafting while satisfying the requirement of frequency modulation.
