Application of a self‐tuning to automatic generation control in power system including smes units

Abstract

AbstractIn this study, a self‐tuning control scheme is proposed and applied to automatic generation control (AGC) in power system with superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES). The system is assumed consisting of two areas. The proposed self‐tuning control scheme is used to implement the automatic generation control adding to conventional control configuration. The performance of the system for load changes in the areas in the interconnected power system is studied. A comprehensive performance evaluation of the system is presented. The computer simulation of the interconnected power system with two areas shows that the proposed self‐tuning control scheme is very effective in damp out of oscillations caused by load disturbances.
