In the first part, an economic scheme to smooth short periodic and heavily fluctuating wave power is proposed by controlling the inherent large amount of inertial energy of nearby offshore wind turbine systems (WTSs). The smoothing principle is that these WTSs are controlled to absorb the fluctuations of the wave power or release power opposite to them. The control challenge is that two objectives have to be achieved simultaneously: the rotor speed of a WTS has to be controlled against smoothing requirement whilst controlled to follow changes of wind speed to achieve wind power capture close to the maximum. To resolve this issue, Integrated Compensation Control is developed by adding two supplementary terms into the original maximum power point tracking (MPPT) control. In the second part, a method for short-term wind power smoothing is proposed by controlling wind turbines inertial energy. To achieve this, the designed power reference of a WTS includes two components: one component can approximately recover the original power trajectory of the MPPT control and the other can compensate the fluctuations of the former. In the third part, a new scheme to isolate and suppress forced oscillations is proposed. It controls the inertial energy of wind farms to timely release or absorb power opposite to the forced oscillating power from perturbation areas. Thus, the forced oscillations are prevented from propagating to the rest of power grid - isolated and the oscillating power in the disturbed areas is also reduced - suppressed.
