METHODS OF CONTROLLING A COMBINED PLANT INCLUDING AT LEAST ONE GENERATOR AND AN ENERGY STORE |
| 摘要 |
A method of controlling a combined plant to provide frequency support to a power grid operating at a variable grid frequency, wherein the combined plant includes at least one generator and an energy store, and the combined plant is adapted to supply power to the power grid, the method including the steps of charging the energy store at less than its rated power when frequency support is not needed. When frequency support is needed the combined plant is controlled to increase or decrease the overall power that it supplies to the power grid to provide frequency support. The control of the combined plant can be designed to maximize frequency support revenues. |

1. A method of controlling a combined plant to provide frequency support to a power grid operating at a variable grid frequency, wherein the combined plant comprises at least one generator and an energy store, and is configured to supply power to the power grid, the method comprising:
charging the energy store at less than the rated power of the energy store when frequency support is not needed; and in response to an increase in grid frequency, providing frequency support to the power grid by increasing the charging rate of the energy store so that the energy store absorbs more power. |
