Abstract

The load frequency control (LFC) problem has been a major subject in the power system design/operation. The evolution of many socialised companies for power generation affects the formulation of LFC problem. In the present paper, a fuzzy load frequency controller with minimum rule-base is proposed. The optimal rule base for the proposed controller is obtained from fuzzy C-means clustering technique. The efficacy of the proposed fuzzy C-means load frequency controller is verified and compared with existing techniques in the literature for a three area interconnected power system in deregulated environment for various operating conditions under different nonlinearities. The proposed controller is tested for practical generation plants (NTTPS, KTPS, and RTPS) in India.
