Abstract
Due to the uncertainty of power load demand and the stochastic power generation from renewable energy, frequency fluctuation becomes a major concern of power system, especially for a microgrid. In this paper, an improved proportional-integral (PI) controller based on the neural adaptive control method is proposed to deal with the load frequency control (LFC) problem in a microgrid with wind power. The designed neural adaptive control auxiliary controller is used to provide the adaptive supplement control signal to PI controller in a real-time manner. Simulation studies on a benchmark microgrid system are carried out between the proposed compound controller and traditional PI controller. The simulation results demonstrate the proposed method has a superior performance for stabilizing the frequency over the traditional PI control under disturbances from the load change and wind power.
