Abstract

Sub-synchronous oscillations are becoming commonplace in weak areas of power systems with high levels of renewable generation, affecting their operation. Moreover, there is a lack of methods and techniques that facilitate the understanding of such phenomena and the analysis of mitigation alternatives from a practical-knowledge point of view. In this manuscript, the combination of static and dynamic techniques is utilized and consolidated to derive general conclusions when mitigating sub-synchronous oscillations by means of grid-forming battery energy storage systems (GFM BESSs). The grid impedance shaping effect of GFM BESSs, which allows the mitigation of undesired oscillations, is demonstrated through small-signal (static) and frequency scanning (dynamic) analyses when studying an actual and extremely weak grid, the Australian West Murray Zone. These findings are further validated when performing detailed real-time EMT digital simulations of the grid. Furthermore, additional dynamic simulations demonstrate the ability of GFM BESSs to provide system strength and increment the hosting capacity of renewables in weak areas. The methods and techniques presented in this work can be applied to any power system, further supporting existing industry practices.
