This strategy allows PV power generation systems with different reserve capacities to participate in frequency regulation, optimizing the load reduction controller and ensuring system frequency stability. However, this strategy cannot fully utilize the frequency modulation potential of photovoltaics with different capacities.
From the perspective of control strategies, the participation of PV systems in primary frequency regulation can generally be categorized into two types: load reduction control and coordinated control with PV-energy storage systems.
On a long time scale, a reactive power reserve control strategy applied to the photovoltaic side has been proposed. This strategy effectively addresses the continuous fluctuations in sunlight and load, which present random fluctuation scenarios, thereby providing robust support for mitigating system frequency fluctuations.
During the participation of photovoltaics in grid frequency regulation, different frequency regulation tasks are required at different time scales. The grid demands that photovoltaics (PVs) improve steady-state frequency when facing short-term load fluctuations, while also enhancing frequency response to long-term environmental and load changes.
When solar irradiance increases or load decreases, excess power from the PV source triggers adjustments through variable initial reduction rate control, frequency droop control, and inertial support control to increase the reduction rate, aiming to suppress frequency fluctuations and alleviate insufficient frequency regulation capability.
Frequency rise is regulated by PV units during frequency increase, while frequency decrease is managed by energy storage, aiming to minimize curtailment rates. Reference demonstrates the positive impact of energy storage optimizing system inertia response in system frequency adjustment.
