Frequency Support Coordinated Control Strategy of Renewable Distributed Energy Resource Based on Digital Twins

The integration of high-penetration renewable energy sources is playing an increasingly important role in the frequency regulation of the power system. However, due to the varying output characteristics and response speeds of different renewable distributed energy resources (DERs), the overall response from the collective output of these distributed energy resources may not meet expected requirements and could have adverse effects on the grid. One drawback of traditional distributed coordinated control is its high communication requirements. This paper proposes using digital twin (DT) technology for the coordinated control of distributed energy resources, which can minimize the communication needs between various distributed energy resources while achieving coordinated control. Verification of the frequency support coordinated control strategy based on digital twin technology shows that it can effectively enhance the individual output characteristics and overall response of each distributed energy resource, providing effective support for grid frequency.
