Reactive
power compensators (RPCs), as key devices for enhancing the voltage support
capability of renewable energy plants, have been widely applied. However,
renewable energy plants still face the risk of transient synchronization
instability under large disturbances in weak grids. Therefore, to clarify the
improvement effect of multi-type RPCs—including static var compensators (SVC), static
var generators (SVG), and static synchronous condenser (SSC)—on the weak grid
adaptability of renewable energy plants, it is imperative to investigate the
mechanism by which multi-type RPCs influence the transient synchronization
stability of renewable energy plants. First, considering the synchronization
mechanisms and output characteristics of both multi-type RPCs and renewable
energy plants, a transient synchronization model for renewable energy plants
integrated with multi-type RPCs is established. Second, considering the grid
Short-Circuit Ratio (SCR) and reactive power compensation capacity, the
influence of multi-type RPCs on the equivalent damping, inertia, and frequency
variation of the plant is analyzed; meanwhile, the improvement effect of
multi-type RPCs on transient stability under weak grid conditions is
comparatively studied via the phase plane method. Finally, an electromagnetic
transient simulation model of renewable energy plants integrated with
multi-type RPCs is built based on MATLAB/Simulink, which verifies the
correctness of the theoretical analysis in this paper.
