Abstract
This article examines the effect of virtual inertia and damping (VID) control on the stability regions of time-delayed load frequency control (LFC) systems. Because of the substantial integration of renewable energy sources (RES) and the utilization of an open communication network for sending/receiving data and control signals, the system inertia significantly decreases, and inevitable delays are observed, both of which adversely affect the controller performance and frequency stability. For improving the stability of LFC systems including RES and delays, this study proposes the integration of the VID control and determines stability regions using the method of stability boundary locus. The regions’ boundaries are substantiated by time-domain simulations and a quasi-polynomial mapping-based root finder (QPmR) algorithm. A wide-ranging evaluation of the VID coefficients’ effects on the stability region and the system’s frequency response are presented. Results evidently divulge that with the integration of the VID control, stability regions get larger, the frequency dynamic is improved, and unstable LFC systems with delays are stabilized.
