A novel VSG model suitable for the analyses of static/transient stability and rated power/energy capacity of energy storage system

Abstract

AbstractThis paper proposes a novel model for the analysis and design of a virtual synchronous generator (VSGs). To enhance the stability in power systems with distributed generators, the concept of VSG has been proposed. The VSG is designed based on the swing equation of a synchronous generator ignoring the dynamics of current flowing through an interconnection reactor. However, responses obtained with actual system are different from those calculated from the model. It implies that the VSG cannot be correctly analyzed and designed by using the conventional model. This paper constructs an accurate VSG model considering the dynamics of current. Moreover, we address the stability analysis of the VSG and reveal a relation between the parameters of VSG controller and the rated power/energy capacity of energy storage systems equipped with the VSG based on the proposed model. © 2019 Institute of Electrical Engineers of Japan.
