Resumen:
Power system stabilisers (PSSs) are commonly used in synchronous generators for damping low-frequency oscillations. However, many of these machines have been replaced by converter-interfaced generators (CIGs), such as those used in solar power plants. This means that CIG-based power plants should also contribute to oscillation damping. Moreover, CIGs may use both active and reactive power for power oscillation damping (POD). However, their combined use has been seldom studied in the literature. Moreover, only a few articles have addressed the adaption of POD controllers when the power system changes (e.g., after a fault). In this paper, a POD controller for CIG-based power plants is proposed that is suitable for operation in power systems exposed to reconfiguration. This controller takes advantage of both active and reactive power injection to maximise the damping of the power system. This controller is based only on local measurements so communication systems are not required. Theoretical developments were validated in a laboratory using real power converters including a 75 kVA grid emulator where the two-area benchmark model is emulated and four 15 kVA CIGs operating in parallel connection. The applicability of the proposed controller was also explored for the IEEE 39-bus system.
