Description
Summary:This paper presents a Model Predictive Control (MPC) technique for frequency stabilization of renewable power systems with inherent nonlinearities. To prove the effectiveness of the proposed technique, the Egyptian Power System (EPS), which includes both conventional generation units (i.e., non-reheat, reheat and hydraulic power plants) and wind turbines is tested using Matlab/SIMULINK® software. Furthermore, the performance of the proposed MPC technique is compared with an optimal Proportional-Integral (PI) controller-based Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm under different load profiles and system uncertainties. The simulation results emphasize the superior robustness of the proposed MPC-based LFC in comparison to the optimal PI controller.
