Adaptive Transient Synchronization Support Strategy for Grid-Forming Energy Storage Facing Inverter Faults

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Aiming at the transient synchronization instability problem of grid-forming energy storage under a fault in the grid-connected inverter, this paper proposes an adaptive transient synchronization support strategy for grid-forming energy storage facing inverter faults. First, the equal area rule is employed to analyze the transient response mechanism of the grid-forming energy storage grid-connected inverter under faults, revealing the negative coupling relationship between active power output and transient stability, as well as the positive coupling relationship between reactive power output and transient stability. Based on this, through the analysis of the dynamic characteristics of the fault overcurrent, the negative correlation between the fault inrush current and impedance and the positive correlations among the fault steady-state current, active power, and voltage at the point of common coupling are identified. Then, a variable proportional–integral controller is designed to adaptively correct the active power reference value command, and the active power during the fault is gradually restored via the frequency feedback mechanism. Meanwhile, the reactive power reference value is dynamically adjusted according to the voltage at the point of common coupling to effectively support the voltage. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed strategy is verified in MATLAB/Simulink.
