Controller Infrastructure Design Of Isolated Power-Electricity Island Using Genetic Algorithm

The contribution presents the use of Genetic Algorithm for searching of the optimal parameters of a set of speed controllers of an isolated power-electricity island. The island consists of several hydro turbine-generators and CCGT blocks in speed control mode and a nuclear power plant block in power control mode. Six PI-controllers are designed. The cost function which is minimised using the Genetic Algorithm represents the integral of the control error area.
