Abstract

This paper focuses on load frequency control (LFC) of an integrated unequal three area thermal system with the incorporation of electric vehicle (EV) in all three areas. An appropriate generation rate constraint of 3% per minute is considered in each of the three areas. The performance of conventional controllers like Integral (I), Proportional-Integral (PI) and Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controllers are evaluated on the system. A new nature-inspired optimization technique named as Wind Driven Optimization (WDO) technique is utilized for optimizing parameters of the controllers. Comparison between the responses obtained by using I, PI and PID discloses the superior performance of PID controller from the point of view of time of dying out of response, highest deviation and degree of oscillations. The study has been stretched to the application of random loading in Area-1 in place of step load. Also, an analysis is carried out to evaluate the impact of incorporation of EV in the system, which reveals the improvement of system dynamics with the incorporation of EV.
