MUMBAI, India, July 5 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202517058721 A) filed by General Electric Renovables Espana, S. L., Barcelona, Spain, on June 19, for 'system and method for plant-level coordination of inertial power response of grid-forming inverter-based resources.'
Inventor(s) include Djan-Sampson, Patrick Osae; Howard, Dustin, F; and Achilles, Alfredo, Sebastian.
The application for the patent was published on July 4, under issue no. 27/2025.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "A method of coordinating an inertial power response of a plurality of inverter-based resources in a power plant connected to an electrical grid includes receiving, via a plant-level controller of the power plant, at least one of a desired plant inertia or desired plant inertial power capability. The method also includes continuously, via the plant-level controller, determining and sending at least one of inertial power limits, virtual inertia settings, or an active power reference change to each of the plurality of inverter-based resources. Further, the method includes coordinating, via the plant-level controller, the inertial power response of the power plant to satisfy at least one of the desired plant inertia or the desired plant inertial power capability by allowing respective controllers of each of the plurality of inverter-based resources to independently respond to a grid frequency event up to the inertial power limits."
The patent application was internationally filed on Dec. 19, 2022, under International application No.PCT/US2022/053348.
