Classification: CPC F  Y | IPC F

Claim 10:
11. A power conversion plant, comprising:
a rotor;
a power conversion system mechanically connected with the rotor and configured to convert input motive power into electrical output power, the power conversion system connectable to a network;
a sensor connectable to the network that measures at least one signal correlated with a current frequency (f) of the network;
a controller communicatively coupled with the power conversion system and the sensor, the sensor configured to:
receive and use the at least one signal to determine the current frequency (f);
determine, when the current frequency (f) is equal to or lower than a threshold frequency (fthresh), an electrical output power increase (PI) for the power conversion system in accordance with a monotonic function (PI(f)) of the current frequency (f), the monotone function (PI(f)) being limited to a maximum value (PImax) determined as a function of an initial electrical output power (P0) of the power conversion system; and

use the electrical output power increase (PI) for controlling the power conversion system.
