Load Frequency Control in Renewable Energy Penetrated Hybrid Power Systems

In order to ensure zero steady-state error in multi-area hybrid power systems, load frequency control is implemented in the power system.However, variations in load due to cyclic amplitude deviation create frequency fault leading to unscheduled tie-line power.Hence a novelOperational Load Forecasting Approach is utilized in which objective function in support vector regression predicts load demand and generation based on temporalcharacteristicsand utilize parallel processing to tolerate the acceptable error margin.Moreover, the uncertainties of active power generation in islanding mode make the estimation of frequency response deviation under decentralized islanding modes difficult.Hence a novelDifferential ControllerAlgorithm has been proposed in which the sigmoidal range function determines the optimal amplitude value from individual areasand the controller predicts the high load demand area that exceeds the threshold limit and isolatesthat area until the deviation is rectified.Low tie-line power, frequency, and settling time deviations were accomplished using the proposed methodologies as they were simulated using the Simulink platform.
