Resilient math inspired EDA optimized fuzzy adaptive exponent controller for LFC improvement of an EV integrated microgrid
Published on - Scientific Reports
Abstract This study aims to stabilize the frequency of an electric vehicle-integrated AC microgrid in different electrical uncertainties. The recommended microgrid is built by incorporating different distributed generation (DG) oriented power plants. The DG system includes a wind power plant, solar PV plant, diesel generator, fuel cell and geothermal plant. The microgrid frequency goes on oscillating under the action of few uncertainties like dynamics in applied load, fluctuation in wind power and variability in solar power intensity. Further, the charging of electric vehicles extremely disturbs the grid frequency and causes frequency instability issues in the microgrid. This proposed study has anticipated a Fuzzy adaptive exponent PID (Fuzzy PI-D Æ ) controller to obtain stability in microgrid frequency under different disturbances. Further, the microgrid is associated with different energy-storing devices for improving overall power quality of the system. The Fuzzy PI-D Æ parameters are selected in optimum by incorporating an advanced Math inspired-Exponential distribution algorithm (Mi-EDA) in different operations. The potential of the optimal Fuzzy PI-D Æ controller is compared with fractional ordered fuzzy PID (FO-FPID), Fuzzy PID and PID controllers in concern to the microgrid’s frequency stabilization. The research findings conclude that, the anticipated Fuzzy PI-D Æ approach promptly advances the settling time of frequency by 72.72% and 136.32% and 345.46% to that of FO-FPID, Fuzzy PID and PID controllers respectively. The optimal property of the recommended Mi-EDA technique is compared with the typical sine cosine algorithm (SCA), GA and PSO techniques for validating the potential of the technique.
