Optimal Secondary Frequency Regulation With ON-OFF Loads in Power Networks
Load side participation can provide support to the power network by appropriately adapting the demand when required. In addition, it enables an economically improved power allocation. In this study, we consider the problem of providing an optimal power allocation among generation and on-off loads within the secondary frequency control timeframe.

A constrained wind farm controller providing secondary frequency regulation: An LES study
Active power control for wind farms is needed to provide ancillary services. One of these services is to track a power reference signal with a wind farm by dynamically de- and uprating the turbines. In this paper we present a closed-loop wind farm controller that evaluates 1) thrust coefficients on a seconds-scale that provide power tracking and ...

Optimal Primary Frequency Regulation Control Strategy for Wind Farms to Prevent Secondary Frequency Drop [PDF]
As the share of wind power in the power generation structure increases, the demand for effective frequency regulation using wind turbines also grows. Wind turbines typically participate in frequency regulation by reducing rotor speed. However, extended operation at low speeds can lead to efficiency losses, which necessitate measures to disengage from ...

Model‐based receding horizon control of wind farms for secondary frequency regulation [PDF]
AbstractIn this study, we propose the use of model‐based receding horizon control to enable a wind farm to provide secondary frequency regulation for a power grid. The controller is built by first proposing a time‐varying one‐dimensional wake model, which is validated against large eddy simulations of a wind farm at startup.

Optimal Distributed Control for Secondary Frequency and Voltage Regulation in an Islanded Microgrid
This paper proposes an optimal distributed control strategy for the coordination of multiple distributed generators in an islanded microgrid (MG). A finite-time secondary frequency control approach is developed to eliminate the frequency deviation and maintain accurate active power sharing in a finite-time manner.

A dual-driven predictive control for photovoltaic-diesel microgrid secondary frequency regulation
Photovoltaic (PV) panel generator is inherently fluctuant due to its dependence on weather. If this generator connects to power grids or microgrids (MGs), the frequency of renewable-energy-based power grids or MGs will not be stable. Hence, in this paper, a dual-driven predictive control scheme is proposed to control the frequency to make MGs stable ...
