Resonance Mechanism Analysis and Suppression of Grid-Connected Energy Storage Power Station Inverter

The increasingly prominent “double-high” characteristics (high penetration of renewable energy and high proportion of power electronic devices) in modern power systems pose severe challenges to secure and stable operation, especially due to wideband oscillations induced by grid-connected inverters. In view of the fact that existing impedance modeling for grid-forming control often neglects the decoupling effect of the LC filter capacitor and the dynamics of inner voltage/current loops, leading to inaccurate characterization of mid-to-high frequency impedance, this paper aims to establish more accurate impedance models for grid-connected inverters and to develop effective oscillation mitigation methods accordingly. First, the harmonic linearization method is adopted to derive refined positive- and negative-sequence impedance analytical models for NPC inverters under both grid-following and grid-forming control. Second, simulation-based frequency scanning is conducted to validate the accuracy of the proposed models, and the differences in system resonance characteristics under the two control modes are comparatively analyzed. Finally, oscillation suppression strategies based on active damping and virtual impedance are, respectively, designed. The results show that the proposed models can accurately characterize mid-to-high frequency impedance, reveal the distinct resonance mechanisms of different control modes, and the proposed suppression strategies can effectively attenuate wideband oscillations. These findings provide theoretical foundations and practical technical pathways for stability analysis and optimization design of inverter-grid systems in high-renewable-penetration scenarios.
