Frequency control rebalances supply and demand while maintaining the network state within operational margins. It is implemented using fast ramping reserves that are expensive …
Automatic generation control (AGC) is primarily responsible for ensuring the smooth and efficient operation of an electric power system. The main goal of AGC is to keep the …
This paper develops and analyzes feedback-based online optimization methods to regulate the output of a linear time invariant (LTI) dynamical system to the optimal solution of a time …
This paper considers the economic dispatch problem for a network of power generating units communicating over a strongly connected, weight-balanced digraph. The collective …
