Abstract

Power costs are increasing on a daily basis, generating changes in system frequency and causing serious concerns with system stability. It has become a major problem to offer customers with uninterrupted and high-quality power. To mitigate these issues, a linked power system's load distribution and network frequency should be constantly reviewed. Load frequency control adjusts the generator's energy output and tie line power between prescribed limits. As well as regulating generator output power, load frequency control also adjusts tie line power. The disturbance in the frequency due to different load changes is regulated using the proposed scheme. In this article, a two-area load frequency control system is constructed and evaluated using various control approaches, including a proportional integral derivative (PID) controller, a proportional integral (PI) controller, a fuzzy logic-based controller, and an Artificial Neural Network (ANN). The goal is to assess the power system's resilience under different loading conditions with these control schemes. The performance of the controllers is compared based on peak-undershoot, peak-overshoot, and settling time, focusing on tie line power and frequency response. To achieve this, the design is implemented using MATLAB/SIMULINK software.
