Abstract

With the rapid growth of renewable energy and power electronic loads, voltage source converters (VSCs) have been commonly applied in different VSCs-based power systems, which also bring in stability issues due to their power electronic characteristics. The impedance-based stability theory and corresponding reshaping method can be used to analyze and solve system stability issue. However, dc stability issue in VSCs-based power systems becomes more complicated when considering ac/dc coupling relationship. This paper proposes an improved reshaping control strategy based on the detailed impedance model considering grid impedance and control delay. The influence of grid impedance, control delay and control parameters of VSC on dc stability are further analyzed to identify the cause of potential resonance risk. The proposed impedance reshaping method considers the trade-off between stability improvement and control performance, and compensates the impacts of grid impedance and control delay at the same time. The validity of stability analysis and reshaping method is further verified through the simulation and experimental results.
