Abstract

A method and apparatus for controlling a reactive power of a generator in a power plant are provided. The method includes: S1, dividing a plurality of power plants into a plurality of plant-plant coordination groups; S2, dividing generators into a first generator and a second generator set; S3, calculating a deviation between a measured voltage and a preset voltage of a central bus; S4, comparing the deviation with a control dead band threshold; S5, establishing a reactive power tracking model if the deviation is greater than the control dead band threshold; S6, establishing a reactive power keeping model; and S7, obtaining sum reactive power adjustments of the generators according to the first reactive power adjustments and the second reactive power adjustments, and obtaining voltage adjustments of buses according to the sum reactive power adjustments.
