Abstract: The invention relates to a method for controlling injection and absorption of reactive power in a wind power plant (WPP). In addition to wind turbine generators (WTG), the wind power plant comprises reactive power regulating devices, such as MSU and STATCOM devices. The reactive power regulating devices are controlled by wind power plant controller so that the combined amount of reactive power produced by the wind turbine generators and the reactive power regulating devices satisfies a desired amount of reactive power. In case of communication fault between the power plant controller and one of the reactive power regulating devices, the power plant controller is reconfigured so as to compensate the capability of the reactive power regulating device to inject or absorb the amount of reactive power.

Abstract: The present invention relates a method of controlling a wind power plant connected to an electrical grid, the wind power plant comprises a power plant controller (350), a plurality of wind turbine generators (1) and a STATCOM (230), with a STATCOM controller, comprises: controlling the plurality of wind turbine generators in a first control mode, with the power plant controller controlling a reactive power production from each of the plurality of wind turbine generators according to a closed loop control scheme, and controlling in a first control mode with a closed loop control scheme a reactive power production from the STATCOM according to a first setpoint dispatched from the power plant controller, and controlling the reactive power production from the STATCOM in a second control mode from the STATCOM controller according to an electrical measurement in the grid, and controlling the plurality of wind turbine generators in a second control mode, with the power plant controller controlling a reactive power p
