Abstract
A method for operating a renewable energy power system connected to a power grid includes operating the renewable energy power system at one or more first operational settings. The method also includes monitoring the renewable energy power system for electrical oscillations caused by a grid or system disturbance. In response to detecting the electrical oscillations being above a predetermined threshold indicative of the one or more first operational settings no longer being suitable for grid conditions, the method includes changing the one or more first operational settings to one or more different, second operational settings so as to reduce the electrical oscillations in the renewable energy power system.
