  • Patent number: 10770905
    Abstract: While a power storage installation operates as a virtual generator to maintain an power storage amount, a power generating installation calculates a first generated power change rate command value from a deviation between a frequency of a power distribution system and a frequency command value, calculates a second generated power change rate command value from received power measured by a received power measurer, calculates a second active power command value by integrating a generated power change rate command value to which the first generated power change rate command value and the second generated power change rate command value are added, and controls an output of the power generating installation based on the second active power command value.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9768712
    Abstract: A power conversion device includes: a power converter to perform output to an output line connected to a single-phase power system; and a control device to control the power converter so it operates as a virtual synchronous generator. The control device includes: a voltage and current measurer to obtain, from a single-phase system voltage, an angular velocity and a phase of the system voltage by an estimation operation that uses the phase of the system voltage as a parameter; a power obtainer to obtain active power and reactive power; a governor model to calculate a phase difference; an AVR model to calculate an absolute value of an induced voltage of a virtual synchronous generator; a generator model to calculate current command values corresponding to an armature current of the virtual synchronous generator; and a current controller to generate and output a PWM signal to the power converter.
