Generation control in small isolated power systems

Recently, interest in isolated small power systems is rapidly increasing. This interest is due to the fact that larger power plants are economically unfeasible in many regions due to increasing system and fuel costs. When the system operates in isolation then load tracking problem arises which can cause voltage and frequency problems. One possible solution to keep power balance in the system and to have generation control is to use DC battery storage. This paper present a study of the generation control in small isolated power network based on grid voltage control and the storage frequency control.
