We present a distributed and price-based control approach for frequency regulation in power grids with nonzero line conductances. Both grid and controller are modeled as a port-Hamiltonian system, where the grid model consists of differential as well as algebraic equations. Simulations show that the resulting controller asymptotically stabilizes the frequency while maintaining minimum overall generation costs in steady state and being robust in terms of clock drifts and uncontrollable loads. Moreover, it is shown that active power sharing can be achieved by an appropriate choice of the cost function.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
