Abstract: Due to the huge data of large-scale photovoltaic (PV) power plants, the establishment of its equivalent model is more practical than a detailed model. In connection with the current research status, this paper reviews the steady-state equivalent model and transient equivalent model of PV power plants. The steady-state equivalent model is used for power flow calculation and static stability analysis. Transient equivalent models contain the single-machine equivalent model and the multi-machine equivalent models, which are used for the simulation analysis of large disturbances. The calculation of equivalent parameters and the equivalence of power collection system are briefly introduced. The conclusion and problems to be solved are put forward at the end. The establishment of the equivalent model simplifies the detailed model, which is convenient for the planning and simulation analysis of the PV power plant, and can also accurately characterize the operating characteristics of the PV power plant, which is of great significance.
