Abstract

This work proposes the adoption of Enhanced Gradient-Based Optimizer (EGBO) as a new approach to the Load Frequency Control (LFC) problem in a two-area interconnected power system. The importance of determining the optimal parameters for the controllers for the LFC problem cannot be overstated, and the fact that estimating these parameters require complex and nonlinear computations makes the optimization procedure even more unique and challenging. Consequently, application of an efficient optimization algorithm to successfully attain optimal controller parameters is critical. To accomplish this task, the proposed EGBO algorithm is compared to the fundamental Gradient-Based Optimizer (GBO), Chimp Optimization Algorithm (ChOA), Sine Cosine Algorithm (SCA), Grey Wolf Optimization (GWO), and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) for optimizing an Integral-Time-multiplied-Absolute-Error (ITAE) based objective function. The relevant findings show that the EGBO algorithm is competitively superior in terms of resilience, precision, and latency when compared to other optimization methods. Lastly, the statistical comparison further strengthens the outcome of the study.
