Zusammenfassung:A method of controlling a hybrid power plant connected to a power network, the hybrid power plant having a first renewable energy generator and a second renewable energy generator, the first renewable energy generator being configured to generate power using a different source of renewable energy to the second renewable energy generator. The method comprises: determining a target plant power output for the hybrid power plant; determining a target generator power output for each of the first and second generators based on the target plant power output; determining a respective ramp rate for each of the first and second renewable energy generators based, at least in part, on an attribute of the respective renewable energy generator; and operating each of the first and second renewable energy generators to change its power output to the power network at the determined ramp rate to achieve the target generator power output.
