Abstract
The invention relates to a method for providing power ramp rate control of a hybrid power plant with a plurality of energy assets including wind turbine generators and possibly solar power units, and an energy storage unit. Each energy asset has a ramp rate capability defined as the highest possible ramp rate at a given time, and the method includes receiving from each energy asset the corresponding ramp rate capability, and taking into account the ramp rate capabilities from the energy assets when calculating the power setpoint to each energy asset, so as to improve the power ramp rate control of the hybrid power plant.
