N2 - As the wind power penetration level increases, the inertial response of a wind power plant (WPP) is important to the grid under load and generation imbalance. In this paper, we present coordinated WPP control for frequency support under wake effects. By de-loading the power from a WPP, the inertial response can be obtained from the kinetic energy of wind turbine rotors. The coordinated WPP control considering wake effects improves the inertial response of WPP by preventing the rotor speed recovery period, which is unfavorable during a frequency drop. The proposed frequency support scheme could prevent large generation reduction right after an inertial response. In addition, more power generation is available when a WPP uses both primary and secondary control. To validate the performance, a WPP with three wind turbines was used as a case study with wake, turbine, and generator models.
