Preventing loss of synchronism of droop-based grid-forming converters during frequency excursions

This short communication addresses the risk of synchronisation loss during frequency excursions for droop-based grid-forming converters when active power limitations are considered. The synchronising capability of this control approach is based on the converter’s active power exchange, which is used...

The synchronising capability of this control approach is based on the converter’s active power exchange, which is used to generate the internal frequency of the converter control. The power available in the resource or converter ratings can impact the synchronising capability during frequency deviations. The analysis is restricted to droop-based grid-forming converters, but it could be extended to other active-power-based synchronising methods. A droop-based control is proposed to extend the operation frequency range of grid-forming converters. The performance of the suggested method is also compared to alternative ones presented in the literature. Finally, the proposed control is validated in the IEEE 9-bus system with different VSC penetration levels through EMT simulations developed in PSCAD.This work was supported by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Program (POSYTYF Project) under Grant 883985.
