Abstract

A method for controlling a virtual generator including at least one renewable power source, an accumulation system including a power and/or energy reserve, an inverter and a control law, the virtual generator delivering an active P/reactive Q electrical power of voltage V and of current I to a microgrid, the voltage V and current I having a frequency f, the active P/reactive Q electrical power controlling, via droop control, the frequency f and the RMS voltage Vrms of the voltage V, respectively, the method including control of the virtual generator via the control law for which it carries out an adjustment of the active P/reactive Q power delivered to the microgrid, the adjustment being capable of compensating for a variation in the active/reactive power consumed by the microgrid.
