Abstract:
A method and control arrangement are disclosed for controlling power output of a wind power plant (WPP) including a plurality of wind turbine generators (WTGs). The method includes determining that overboosting is required for the WPP to meet a power demand at the WPP, and determining, for at least a first WTG of the plurality of WTGs, a corresponding amount of overboost capacity. The method further includes generating, based on the determined amount of overboost capacity, control signals causing the first WTG to increase its power output through overboosting to thereby fulfill at least a portion of the power demand.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for controlling a wind power plant, comprising one or more wind turbine generator(s) connected to an electrical grid, and a power plant controller having an operational mode, controlling electrical parameters, wherein the method comprises, determining a first voltage level of one or more wind turbine generator(s), determining if the first voltage level of one or more wind turbine generator(s) is outside a first predetermined range, in case the first voltage level of one or more wind turbine generator(s) is outside a first predetermined range then, changing the operational mode of the power plant controller between first and second operational modes, the first operational mode controlling a first electrical parameter, the second operational mode controlling a second electrical parameter, the first and second parameters being different. The present invention also relates to a power plant controller and a wind power plant operated according to the method.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for controlling injection and absorption of reactive power in a wind power plant (WPP). In addition to wind turbine generators (WTG), the wind power plant comprises reactive power regulating devices, such as MSU and STATCOM devices. The reactive power regulating devices are controlled by wind power plant controller so that the combined amount of reactive power produced by the wind turbine generators and the reactive power regulating devices satisfies a desired amount of reactive power. In case of communication fault between the power plant controller and one of the reactive power regulating devices, the power plant controller is reconfigured so as to compensate the capability of the reactive power regulating device to inject or absorb the amount of reactive power.
