Abstract

The incorporation of renewable energy sources into modern power systems is on the upswing, intending to produce and deliver cost-efficient electricity to meet the ever-increasing demands of today’s world. Solar energy stands out as a plentiful and robust solution for meeting current electricity requirements. However, integrating solar photovoltaic (PV) generated power into the contemporary power system introduces complexity, necessitating the development of suitable control design to ensure effective regulation of load frequency control (LFC). This research paper concentrates on the mathematical modeling and integration of solar PV generated electricity into a hydrothermal system. In addition, this study also evaluates the performance of the variable structure fuzzy (VSF) control with reduced rule base for hydrothermal system concerning varying degrees of disturbances in one or in both regions of the power system. Moreover, the research reveals that the integration of PV power into hydro-thermal systems can improve the LFC outputs and mitigate system deviations in the face of different disturbance scenarios.
