Abstract
This paper aims to develop a novel method for the dynamic equivalence of a renewable power plant, ultimately contributing to power system modeling and enhancing the integration of renewable energy sources. In order to address the challenge posed by clusters of renewable generation units during the equivalence process, the paper introduces the degree of similarity to assess similarity features under data. After leveraging the degree of similarity in conjunction with data-driven techniques, the proposed method efficiently entails dividing numerous units in a large-scale plant into distinct clusters. Additionally, the paper adopts practical algorithms to determine the parameters for each aggregated cluster and streamline the intricate collector network within the renewable power plant. The equivalent model of a renewable power plant is thereby conclusively derived. Comprehensive case studies are conducted within a practical offshore wind plant setting. These case studies are accompanied by simulations, highlighting the advantages and effectiveness of the proposed method, offering an accurate representation of the renewable power plant under diverse operating conditions.
