Observer-Based Load Frequency Control For Island Microgrid With Photovoltaic Power, Chaoxu Mu, Weiqiang Liu, Wei Xu, Md Rabiul Islam

Faculty of Engineering and Information Sciences - Papers: Part B

As renewable energy is widely integrated into the power system, the stochastic and intermittent power generation from renewable energy may cause system frequency deviating from the prescribed level, especially for a microgrid. In this paper, the load frequency control (LFC) of an island microgrid with photovoltaic (PV) power and electric vehicles (EVs) is investigated, where the EVs can be treated as distributed energy storages. Considering the disturbances from load change and PV power, an observer-based integral sliding mode (OISM) controller is designed to regulate the frequency back to the prescribed value, where the neural network observer is used to online …
