Title of Speech: SFR Modeling and Short-term Frequency Regulation for Hybrid Power Systems

Abstract: With the energy transition towards carbon neutrality, high-penetration renewable energy sources will be connected to the power grid. This poses some new operation and generation challenges. Apart from the reduced system inertia, the stochastic fluctuations induced by photovoltaic (PV) power plants and wind power plants lead to the randomness and volatility of power generation. In this talk, we will introduce the background of Wind-PV-Thermal hybrid power systems (HPSs) and some existing work on system frequency modelling and frequency regulation methods of HPSs. We then present our recent work on modelling of HPSs by combining both physical model-based and data-driven modelling methods. Furthermore, we will discuss short-term frequency regulation strategies of HPSs by jointly utilizing wind power, photovoltaics and thermal power frequency regulation resources.
