Interconnecting multiple microgrids (MGs) to form a MG cluster (MGC) is significant to improve the MG power supply reliability and increase the new energy accommodation capacity. However, for the traditional MGC in complex operational conditions, the following technologies need to be further researched, such as mutual power support among MGs, voltage support and power quality improvement and so on. Focusing on the above problems, a novel virtual synchronous port control (VSPC) strategy for MGC is proposed. Firstly, a multiāport soft open point (SOP) is used to interconnect each subāMG in the MGC, to achieve a better flexible interconnection among subāMGs. Secondly, on this basis, the VSPC strategy is proposed. By adopting the DC voltage control of multiāport SOP and the virtual synchronisation control of interconnecting ports, multiple voltage source converters (VSCs) are cluster controlled to provide the subāMGs with superordinate ports with virtual synchronisation characteristics, which ensures the dynamic balance of the power inside the MGC and achieves better voltage and frequency support capability. Finally, the example results verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed VSPC strategy.
