Cooperative Control Strategy for Virtual Inertia Based on Fuzzy Control

The large-scale integration of renewable energies brings about low inertia characteristics to the power system, and the frequency security faces greater challenges. The existing inertia research lacks the synergy between different types of inertia sources and different control methods, and the inertia response capability of power system still can be improved. In this paper, with the aim of proposing a virtual inertia cooperative control strategy for the power system with high penetration of renewable energies, we analyze the virtual inertia mechanisms of wind power, PV units and energy storage system (ESS), and propose control methods for wind power and PV units to participate in inertia response. Considering the reason of limited inertia response capability of renewable energy units, the fuzzy control is used to make the ESS participate in inertia compensation to improve the frequency response capability. Finally, case study is carried out to verified the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.
