description | The growing number of renewable energy replacing conventional generators results in a loss of the reserve for frequency control in power systems, while many industrial power grids often have excess energy supply due to abundant wind and solar energy resources. This paper proposes a secondary frequency control (SFC) strategy that allows industrial power grids to provide emergency high-voltage direct current (HVDC) power support (EDCPS) for emergency to a system requiring power support through a voltage source converter (VSC) HVDC link. An architecture including multiple model predictive control (MPC) controllers with periodic communication is designed to simultaneously obtain optimized EDCPS capacity and minimize adverse effects on the providing power support (PPS) system. Moreover, a model of a virtual power plant (VPP) containing aluminum smelter loads (ASLs) and a high penetration of wind power is established for the PPS system. The flexibility and controllability of the VPP are improved by the demand response of the ASLs. The uncertainty associated with wind power is considered by chance constraints. The effectiveness of the proposed strategy is verified by simulation results using the data of an actual industrial power grid in Inner Mongolia, China. The DC voltage of the VSCs and the DC in the potlines of the ASLs are also investigated in the simulation. |
