The frequency regulation rate and operation stability of a doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) based on a virtual synchronous generator (VSG) strategy decreases under large-power-angle conditions, which reduces the grid frequency support capacity. This paper proposes the compound adaptive parameter (CAP) and coordinated primary frequency regulation (CPFR) strategies to improve the grid frequency support capacity in terms of multiple dimensions of the transient properties, operation condition range, and regulation duration. Mathematical and small signal models of the DFIG-VSG system are constructed. The effect of large-power-angle conditions on the transient properties under grid frequency perturbations is analyzed based on these models, and the CAP strategy for excitation control and virtual damping is formulated. The constraints of the rotor kinetic energy and the load increase capacity of the grid-side converter are analyzed, and the CPFR strategy is formulated based on this. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed strategies is verified via simulations of single-machine and wind farm scenarios under grid frequency perturbation.

This paper proposes a method to improve the voltage adaptability of doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) wind turbines in a decentralised scenario by incorporating a nine‐switch converter (NSC). With the proposed scheme, the DFIG can realise low voltage ride‐through (LVRT) and continuous operation under the grid voltage harmonic, drop, and rise. The topology of the NSC‐DFIG system is introduced and is used to solve the circuit model. Control strategies for voltage compensation and current compensation are based on the circuit model. The corresponding voltage compensation scheme and the NSC DC voltage control scheme were designed according to the specific capacity configuration of the NSC in this study. To reduce the DC‐side voltage of the NSC, a third harmonic‐injection modulation method and a dynamic modulation ratio allocation strategy were incorporated. Simulations under four power grid voltage conditions were used to validate the scheme. This method can improve the voltage adaptability for decentralised DFIG wind power systems, which can enable their successful interactions with the power grid.

Driven by the demand for low-carbon and sustainable development, power systems are increasingly transitioning toward higher proportions of renewable energy and power-electronic interfaces, leading to a growing requirement for wind turbines to provide inertia support and frequency regulation (FR). Wind turbine kinetic energy-based FR inherently involves a trade-off between rotor speed recovery and grid stability: aggressive acceleration exacerbates the secondary frequency drop (SFD), while suppressing SFD prolongs rotor speed recovery. This study aims to resolve this dynamic coupling conflict and optimize the rotor speed recovery process by employing a segmented rotor speed recovery strategy. Firstly, a detailed wind farm-integrated frequency response model is developed. Leveraging its identified speed recovery dynamics, a five-dimensional rotor speed recovery evaluation framework is established. Subsequently, guided by this evaluation framework, a segmented rotor speed recovery control strategy is designed. Finally, three validation scenarios—a single wind turbine, 10% wind power penetration, and 30% wind power penetration—are constructed to evaluate the proposed strategy. Comparative analysis demonstrates that the proposed segmented rotor speed recovery strategy reduces aerodynamic power recovery time by 28.5% and power disturbance by 47.3% in an operational scenario with 30% wind power penetration, effectively achieving synergistic coordination of recovery acceleration and SFD suppression.

In receiving-end modular multilevel converter (MMC)-based flexible high-voltage direct current (HVDC) grid-connected systems, high-frequency oscillation can significantly increase the peak values of the point of common coupling (PCC) voltage and grid current. To address this issue, this paper proposes a coordinated suppression strategy for high-frequency oscillation in receiving-end MMC grid-connected systems. First, an MMC impedance model is established based on harmonic linearization, and its frequency-domain interaction with the grid impedance is analyzed to clarify the formation mechanism of high-frequency oscillation and its main influencing factors. Then, considering the different roles of the voltage feedforward and current feedback channels in the target frequency band, a coordinated suppression strategy combining band-stop filtering in the voltage feedforward path with low-pass filtering and lead compensation in the current feedback path is designed. Hardware-in-the-loop experimental results show that the proposed method effectively identifies and suppresses high-frequency oscillation. Under the validated operating condition, the oscillation-induced peak increases in the PCC voltage and grid current are limited to within 20% and 12.5%, respectively, thereby suppressing further oscillation growth and reducing the risk of approaching the overvoltage and overcurrent protection thresholds.

Variations in wind-turbine rotor speed and converter power margin under different operating conditions constrain the frequency-support power output of wind turbines, thereby affecting the controllability and stability of the frequency-support response. To address this problem, this paper proposes a dual virtual synchronous generator (VSG) coordinated control method for energy-storage doubly fed induction generator wind turbines based on frequency-support power-response equivalence. First, frequency-support power-response models are established for the VSGs implemented at the rotor-side converter and the grid-side converter to describe the active-power dynamic characteristics of the two frequency-support channels. Second, using the target inertial-support power response as the reference, the dual-VSG parameter configuration is transformed into a power-response consistency optimization problem. Furthermore, considering rotor speed, state of charge (SOC), and the grid-side converter upward power margin, the inertia-support and primary frequency regulation power contributions are assigned between the stator and grid-side converter channels. Hardware-in-the-loop validation results show that the proposed method coordinates the dual-channel frequency-support power output under four typical operating conditions with high/low wind speeds and high/low SOC levels, maintains a consistent frequency-support power response, and achieves controllable and stable frequency support over a wide operating range.

Under weak-grid conditions, grid-following (GFL) control of doubly fed induction generators (DFIGs) suffers from reduced stability margins, deteriorated dynamic performance, and intensified oscillations near the stability boundary. To address these issues, a pre-synchronized switching strategy between GFL and grid-forming (GFM) modes, triggered by locally measured operating variables, is proposed. Based on the GFL control model, the evolution of system dynamics with decreasing short-circuit ratio is analyzed, thereby elucidating how reduced grid strength progressively weakens robustness and disturbance rejection and eventually leads to instability. To characterize this deterioration, a set of normalized indices is constructed to quantify the oscillation levels of active power, phase-locked loop frequency, and point of common coupling voltage, enabling reliable identification of control-performance deterioration. A pre-synchronization scheme based on a virtual power closed loop is then developed, allowing the target mode to converge to the current operating point prior to takeover and enabling smooth bidirectional switching between GFL and GFM modes. Hardware-in-the-loop results demonstrate that the proposed strategy accurately detects GFL performance deterioration and effectively suppresses boundary oscillations while mitigating switching transients, thereby enhancing the adaptability of DFIGs to variations in grid strength.
