Abstract
A method for controlling a power output of a grid forming wind turbine () in order to dampen power oscillations between a power grid () to which the wind turbine () is connected and the wind turbine () is disclosed. A damping power reference, P, depending on a grid frequency of the power grid () and/or on a virtual rotor speed is calculated, with the purpose of dampening oscillations in the power output of the grid side converter (). A power output of the grid side converter () is controlled, in accordance with a grid side power reference, P, and taking the damping power reference, P, into account. A feedforward power reference for the machine side converter () is generated, the feedforward power reference including the damping power reference, P, and an inertia power reference, P, proportional to the time derivative of the grid frequency, and a power output of the machine side converter () is controlled at least partly based on the feedforward power reference.
