Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for operating a power plant comprising a plurality of power producing units, the power plant being operatively connected to an associated power grid having a nominal grid frequency, the method comprising the steps of determining grid frequency variations of the associated power grid, and providing, in response to the determined grid frequency variations, an active power set-point to each of the plurality of power producing units, said active power set-point causing each of the plurality of power producing units to produce active power in response to said active power set-point, said produced active power comprising, in a frequency domain, one or more active power frequency components being different from one or more undesired frequency modes. The present invention also relates to a power plant controller for performing the method.
