Abstract:

The main power grid framework of Xizang is a long-chain weakly interconnected structure with insufficient system regulation capacity.Enhancing the active support capability has become an urgent issue for the Xizang power grid.Deploying the grid-forming energy storage is proposed to enhance grid voltage and frequency support capabilities.First, through simulation methods, the inertia response and voltage support capabilities of the grid-forming energy storage are focused on analyzing, and compared with those of synchronous generators.Then, by combining an operational case of a grid-forming energy storage power station in the Xizang power grid, the voltage and frequency support functions of the grid-forming energy storage in weak grids are demonstrated, proving that the grid-forming energy storage is the primary solution for supporting the Xizang power grid.Finally, the opportunities and challenges facing the development of the grid-forming energy storage are presented.

Key words: grid-forming, grid-forming energy storage, active support, weak grid
