Abstract
A method for controlling a power output of a power generating unit includes receiving at least two measurement data sets from a location of integration of a power generating unit to an electrical grid. Each measurement data set includes a plurality of electrical parameters. The method further includes generating a grid model of the electrical grid based on the at least two measurement data sets. The grid model is characterized by an equivalent grid voltage and an equivalent grid impedance. The method further includes computing a strength value of the electrical grid based on the grid model, using the at least two measurement data sets. The method also includes controlling the power output of a power generating unit based on the strength value of the electrical grid.
