This paper discusses the utilization options of high voltage direct current (HVDC) connected offshore wind farms (WFs) to contribute to the fast frequency control during overfrequency events. A disturbance such as a sudden loss of load in a grid will cause the frequency to increase; the first seconds in the response are shaped mainly by the total inertia level in the grid. With increasing share of inertia-less wind generation in modern grids, a fast overfrequency limiting control should be provided by the wind farms. Power reduction by pitching is the most common and straightforward method. Kinetic energy control can additionally reduce the overfrequency. An alternative strategy utilizing the HVDC chopper to limit the frequency overshoot is introduced in this paper. A test grid is used to analyze the performance of the above mentioned strategies. Significant improvements in the frequency response are achieved through combined strategies.
