Abstract

The electric grid is a complex system that transmits electricity from the point of generation to the point of consumption. According to the IEA, worldwide energy-related carbon emissions in 2021 will be 36.3Gt, 60% greater than at the start of the industrial revolution. Researchers have used intelligent solutions for power system frequency regulation to ensure that the system's frequency is maintained. A proper frequency control of the microgrid necessitates the modeling and study of the systems. To emulate the operation of the human brain, frequency control employs a variety of artificial intelligence-based computer algorithms. This thesis generates a complete state space model of a microgrid composed of solar power plants, wind turbines, battery storage systems, and backup generators. The system frequency control was created for this system and analyzed against a benchmark PID controller utilizing several intelligent controllers such as PSO optimized PID, ANN, and ANFIS. The suggested intelligent frequency controllers were be simulated and validated using MATLAB/ Simulink.
