  <abstract>Wind and solar energy sources are cost-effective to sustenance the generation part of energy in the future energy demand. Moreover, renewable energy sources (RESs) will substitute for the  traditional  generation.  RESs  have  the  inherent  fluctuation  and  intermittence  of  power output of these sources. The type of WTs is considered the doubly-fed  induction generator (DFIG). Therefore,  this uncertainty  of  these  generators may  exacerbate  the  stability  and protection  of  power  system.  Energy  storage  systems  and  dump  loads  were  significant  to disentangle this problem. However, they are very expensive for this fluctuation. Therefore, the coordination control between RESs and controllable load in virtual power plant (VPP) is proposed in this study. The control method of power consumption in controllable load is also proposed for providing the power output of the VPP. Moreover, the coordination between the power output of RESs and the droop load power consumption of controllable loads can provide the flexibly power output of the VPP. Furthermore, the frequency  droop control of controllable loads will response the frequency deviation. When the system frequency is over frequency in power system, the controllable loads will increase their power consumption in the VPP for the frequency  regulation. Moreover, the frequency  droop control of the power consumption  of  these  loads  will  decrease  their  power  consumption  when  the  system frequency dropped. WTs have the over power reduction to control the power output of WTs when grid frequency increased. Therefore, VPP is externally adjustable and fulfill important functions electrically connected with the use of energy resources, such as distributed control frequency. The island microgrid and IEEE 33 bus system  are the test system  of this work. This simulation study the load variation in this system. VPP will included the WTs and PVs for  the  island  microgrid.  Moreover,  IEEE  33  bus  system  is  included the  DFIG  and  diesel generators. For this system, This work use the DIgSILENT software for studying the system frequency variation by the coordination between the control of WTs and the frequency droop control of the controllable loads in the virtual powerplant. Simulation results provide 3 cases of island microgrid: 2 WTs are installed in the VPP, PV and WT included in the VPP and PVs  installed  in  VPP.  Moreover,  the  controllable  load  provide  the  two  group  of  loads  to response the frequency deviation. Simulation results confirm the effectiveness of the VPP in providing  support  to  the  microgrid  frequency  of  the  island microgrid  and  IEEE  33  bus system.</abstract>
