Abstract

Method and apparatus for controlling at least one generator and a Static Var Compensator (SVC) to improve dynamic performance of the power plant are provided. The method comprises: obtaining the required input parameters for control of said generators and SVC; determining a control mode of the generators and the SVC; calculating the control references based on the input parameters and the control mode of the generators and the SVC; and controlling the generators and/or the SVC according to the control references. The invention also relates to a corresponding apparatus which can implement the method of the invention.
