This paper proposes an analytical control strategy that enables distributed energy resources (DERs) to provide inertial and primary frequency support. A reduced second-order model is developed based on aggregation theory to simplify the multi-machine system and facilitate time-domain frequency. . The grid demands that photovoltaics (PVs) improve steady-state frequency when facing short-term load fluctuations, while also enhancing frequency response to long-term environmental and load changes. First, a two-stage PV. . To mitigate the system frequency fluctuations induced by the integration of a large amount of renewable energy sources into the grid, a novel ESS participation strategy for primary frequency regulation considering the State of Charge (SOC) is proposed.
