This study presents the industrial implementation of a wide area measurement system (WAMS)-based real-time control scheme in an actual isolated power system for aluminium production in China. As driven by wind and coal power, this isolated power system is both economical and environmental friendly. However, the frequency stability issue is challengeable due to its special load characteristic. WAMS-based control is technically feasible for this issue owing to its instantaneity in monitoring power disturbance, calculating and sending control command. This study presents the industrial implementation method of the WAMS-based control scheme. This industrial implementation provides demonstrative value for WAMS-based control technology, significantly expanding the industrial application prospect of WAMS.
