An On-demand Generation Regulation for Small Independent Power Grids with a Selective Control

This paper proposes a real-time generation regulation system named as "On-demand Generation Regulation Control (OGRC)" system, which is suitable for small independent power grids with unstable renewable energy generators. This system is observing the unstable generator outputs and watching all generators/batteries status including electric vehicles (EV) to realize on-demand regulation of unstable generators. The system deals with renewable energy generators separately to improve efficiency and an effective EV charging control has also been included to improve EV owners' satisfaction and frequency control capability. The performance of the proposed system is verified through numerical simulations based on an actual test site with successful results.
