RESUMO
This paper proposes a multi-level operation method designed to enhance the resilience of power systems under extreme weather conditions by utilizing preventive control and virtual oscillator (VO) technology. Firstly, a novel model for predicting time intervals between successive failures of the power system during extreme weather is introduced. Based on this, this paper proposes a preventive control method considering the system ramping and transmission constraints prior to failures so as to ensure the normal electricity demand within the system. Further, a VO-based adaptive frequency control strategy is designed to accelerate the regulation speed and eliminate the frequency deviation. Finally, the control performance is comprehensively compared under different experimental conditions. The results verify that the method accurately predicted the time of the line fault occurrence, with a maximum error not exceeding 3 min compared to the actual occurrence; also, the virtual oscillator control (VOC) strategy outperformed traditional droop control in frequency stabilization, achieving stability within 2 s compared to the droop control's continued fluctuations beyond 20 s. These results highlight VOC's superior effectiveness in frequency stability and control in power systems.
