Abstract
Highly intermittent power from renewable energy sources (RES) along with load and system perturbations in an autonomous microgrid (MG), results in large frequency fluctuations. Conventional controllers like PI controllers to be unable to provide acceptable performance over a wide range of operating conditions. To overcome this problem, present paper introduces a novel two-stage adaptive fuzzy logic based PI controller for frequency control of MG. In this proposed controller, particle swarm optimization (PSO) and grey wolf optimization (GWO) are used to optimize the membership functions (MFs) and rule base of fuzzy logic based PI controller. The proposed controller is examined on an MG test system, the robustness and performance of the proposed controller is tested in presence of different disturbance scenarios and parametric uncertainties. Finally, the superiority of the proposed controller is shown by comparing the results with various controllers available in literature like PSO tuned fuzzy logic based PI controller, fuzzy logic-based PI controller and also with the conventional PI controller.
