| Summary: | Abstract The penetration of offshore wind farms (OWFs) in city‐close power systems is rapidly increasing. System inertia will be further reduced. Active frequency support of wind power is essential to solve the load frequency control (LFC) problem. Here, the dynamic virtual inertia control (VIC) method is employed to enhance frequency stability within the permitted operating states of OWFs. An adaptive distributed model predictive control (DMPC) method is proposed and applied to an interconnected power system. The dynamic VIC‐based LFC model is derived and used to construct the predictive model of DMPC. To expand the adaptation of the analytical linearized model of OWFs in different operating points, the adaptive law is further designed to dynamically adjust the parameters of DMPC. The simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control method. The frequency fluctuations can be well‐restrained under different disturbances. |
