Funding entity Gas Natural

Gas Natural has required IIT support to incorporate the Arrubal combined cycle power plant to its AGC system. The aim of the project is twofold: (1) IIT will support Gas Natural in the integration of Arrubal power plant in the existing AGC system and (2) IIT will supply a new AGC system of higher capabilities. The main feature of this AGC system is an improvement of the area dynamic response with lower regulating effort.

Research topics:
• *Automatic Generation Control: design and tuning of AGC regulators, identification of power plant models, primary and secondary regulation ancilliary services,
