Abstract

An apparatus includes: an inverter converting generated power of renewable energy resources to predetermined alternating-current power for output to a power transmission network; a PWM control unit controlling the inverter; a first detecting unit detecting the input voltage and current to the inverter; a second detecting unit detecting the output voltage, current, and frequency of the inverter; a power change deciding unit calculating the input and output powers of the inverter and the difference therebetween from the voltage and current of each of the input and output detected by the detecting units, and calculating a correction output power command with reference to an output power command; and a virtual synchronous inertia control unit calculating a virtual inertia characteristic based on the voltage, current, and frequency of the output detected by the second detecting unit and the correction output power command, and outputting a reference command to a PWM control unit.
