Abstract

With the increasing number, micro generation grids are being emerged into the power system network, whereas the future of the power system network is highly promising. Hence, the increase of load demand and fluctuation of load effect the frequency of the system which is one of the major elements in power quality. Load Frequency Control (LFC) is a method to maintain the frequency in the power system when fluctuation of load occurs. Controller is used to perform Load Frequency Control in the system which collects the data (error) and generates a control signal to the system. This chapter focused on a research regarding the Load Frequency Control method in power system with the addition of a renewable unit such as a speed varying standalone wind turbine. The study included simulation of two-area power system in deregulated environment by using MATLAB/Simulink. The output of the power system such as settling time, overshooting and undershooting are studied.
