Constructing a large-scale virtual power plant (L-VPP) based on coal-fired units is a vital strategy for achieving “dual-carbon” goals by enabling renewable energy integration and supporting the transition of coal-fired power generation. A dynamic simulation model of the L-VPP and a source-storage frequency regulation control system model are established, which include a 350 MW coal-fired unit, a 100 MW photovoltaic unit, a 90 MW·h battery energy storage system, and internal loads. The frequency response characteristics of the L-VPP are analyzed for various control systems and at different load ramp rates of the coal-fired unit. The results reveal that, the load ramp rate of the coal-fired unit is a critical constraint on frequency response capability when storage capacity is limited. The complementary frequency response characteristics between the source and storage are obtained, leading to a coordinated control strategy that incorporates auxiliary power commands and cyclic determination mechanisms. Simulations demonstrate that the proposed strategy lowers the frequency nadir by 0.06 Hz and shortens the steady-state recovery time by 18.6%. Furthermore, to achieve a steady-state error within the frequency dead band, the load ramp rate of the coal-fired unit is increased from below 3.50 MW/min to 7.00 MW/min. This strategy offers technical guidance for the safe and efficient operation of large-scale virtual power plants.
