Abstract
This article deals with the coordination of security-constrained economic dispatch and load frequency control in an interconnected power system. The realistic and performance optimization inherent of the load frequency control (LFC) and security-constrained economic dispatch are fully considered without simplifying assumptions. For this purpose, modeling security-constrained economic dispatch as a discontinuous control action in the continuous frequency response model of a power system is well addressed. Considering conflict behavior of LFC and security-constrained economic dispatch beside the powerfulness of the multi-objective genetic algorithm (GA) to solve high-dimensional problems with conflicted objective functions makes it attractive for the automatic generation control coordination problem. The employed security-constrained economic dispatch utilizes the advantages of dynamic economic dispatch to achieve more realistic results. The GA is used to compute the decentralized control parameters and centralized generation levels of the on-line units to achieve an acceptable operating point. A significant modification in convergence speed has been performed by using LFC model properties in corporation with the genetic algorithm, so the proposed method gives considerable promise for implementation in multi-area power systems. The efficiency of the proposed algorithm and modification is demonstrated on a three control area power system.
