In the upcoming era, when conventional sources will mostly be replaced by renewable energy sources, engineers may face huge problem during controller design. For this large interconnected hybrid automatic generation control (AGC) system, high proficient and intelligent control techniques are needed. Hence, a newly developed fractional order tilt integral derivative double integral filter plus (FOTIDF-II) controller has been proposed in this research work. To overcome slow convergence feature of moth swarm algorithm (MSA), chaotic-based moth swarm algorithm (CMSA) is introduced by incorporating chaos into the MSA algorithm. Afterward, to upgrade the performance of AGC, the newly proposed controller is incorporated to the said system. The gains and fractional order parameters such as order of integrator, differentiator and filter coefficients of the proposed controller are optimized using CMSA optimizing technique. It is observed that the dynamic performance of the proposed CMSA optimized FOTIDF-II controller is better than the CMSA optimized PID. Furthermore, the performance of CMSA in the presence of different flexible AC transmission system (FACTs) and storage devices such as distributed power flow controller (DPFC), redox flow battery (RFB), and Tesla power wall (TPWA) battery (i.e Storage devices) along with proposed controller is compared with MSA-based PID controller with same combination of FACTs controller. Afterwards, superiority of the proposed controller has been judged in three area renewable-based AGC system under realistic environment.
