HGS-Based Sliding Mode Control for Voltage and Frequency Regulation in RES Integrated Power System
摘要
Automatic Voltage Regulator and Load Frequency Control are integral parts of the power system control mechanism. This work proposes a novel controller for the simultaneous regulation of frequency and voltage systems in a three-area power system model having renewable integration from wind, geothermal, and solar thermal power plants. Herein, an optimal and robust sliding mode control method has been employed in conjunction with a recently developed Hunger Games Search approach. After conducting extensive simulations, the authors have confirmed the superiority of the proposed SMC-HGS method in comparison with existing controller methodologies, PID-HHO, TIDF-HHO, FOPID-MFO, and FOIDF-LSA. Additionally, the performance of the proposed method has been evaluated under different nonlinearities present in the power system networks.
