Abstract

With the large-scale integration of wind power, modern power systems are facing reduced equivalent inertia, weakened primary frequency regulation capability, and insufficient coordination between wind turbines and energy storage during joint frequency support. To address these issues, this paper investigates a wind–storage hybrid system composed of doubly fed induction generators (DFIG) and supercapacitor energy storage and proposes a coordinated primary frequency regulation strategy combining fuzzy logic control (FLC) and model predictive control (MPC). Considering the variations in rotor kinetic energy reserve and frequency support capability under different wind speed regions, a coordinated regulation mechanism is developed for multiple operating conditions. In addition, a variable-coefficient synthetic inertia control scheme with rotor speed safety constraints is designed to adaptively adjust the turbine regulation coefficients, while an SOC-feedback-based adaptive virtual droop strategy is introduced to improve the sustained support capability of the energy storage unit. On this basis, a multi-objective model predictive control framework is established to optimize the reference power allocation between the wind turbine and the energy storage unit in a rolling manner. The proposed method is characterized by three coordinated features, namely, multi-region wind–storage frequency regulation, rotor-speed-safe adaptive support of the wind turbine and SOC-aware adaptive support of the storage unit, as well as MPC-based rolling power allocation. Simulation results show that the proposed strategy improves the frequency nadir, reduces the steady-state frequency deviation, and enhances coordinated power sharing, thereby improving the primary frequency regulation performance and overall frequency stability of the wind–storage hybrid system.
