Abstract

In this work, automatic generation control (AGC) of multi-area multi-source hydrothermal system with Fuzzy PID controller (FPID) is considered. Differential evolution (DE) optimization technique is used to tune the controller gains and the integral time absolute error (ITAE) is used as an objective function. The proposed approaches advantages are recognized by contrasting its simulation results with GWO tuned PID, BFOA tuned FOPID, and hFA-PS tuned PI/PID controller for the same test conditions. It is observed from simulation results that proposed Fuzzy PID outperforms as compared to conventional controller. Lastly, sensitivity analysis has been performed to test the robustness of suggested approach.
