Dynamic Performance Assessment of Power System Interconnected via Asynchronous Transmission Link in Reorganized Configuration

In this study, an environment that has been restructured for automatic generation control (AGC) of a two-area power system interconnected via an asynchronous transmission link is offered. Each control area has three thermal (reheat) power generating sources, two power distribution companies (DISCOs), and a redox flow battery. By using optimum control theory, the optimal AGC regulators are designed and implemented in the proposed system, considering various power contracts. The dynamic results of the suggested system have been found to satisfactorily fulfill the AGC requirements, and the system’s dynamic performance is enhanced when the suggested system is employed with RFB as compared to without RFB because it might share the immediate need for more active power. Eigenvalues are computed in order to analyze the stability of the system without or with RFB. For SIMULINK model and program coding, MATLAB software version R2013a is used to achieve diverse dynamic responses of the proposed system.
