In light of the growing integration of renewable energy sources, the application of virtual synchronous generator (VSG) control in power systems has emerged as a solution to address frequency issues. While prior studies have highlighted the potential of VSGs in mitigating subsynchronous resonance (SSR), they have not taken into account the varying compensation levels of the line as well as multi-modal SSR. This paper delves into the potential of VSG in multi-modal SSR damping at different compensation levels without tuning any parameter. The case study results demonstrate that VSG can effectively suppress multi-modal SSR during the post-fault period under various compensation level scenarios. This suggests that VSG can significantly enhance the stability and safety of power systems in cases of SSR by damping multi-modal oscillation.
