The strong increase in the number of installed photovoltaic (PV) production plants has
slowly changed the assets and the operating conditions of the electricity power system. In …

This paper proposes a novel methodology for emergency control acting on the mechanical
power in a power grid containing steam power generators that experiences a contingency …

In this work, the application of an Ideal automatic voltage regulator is presented for an
interconnected power system. The Ideal AVR is designed using the feedback linearization …

The aim of the present paper is that of proposing an innovative control strategy based on the
FeedBack Linearization (FBL) technique in order to achieve a high performance and …

Microgrids (MGs) may represent a solution in the near future to many problems in the energy
and electric world scenarios; such as pollution, high reliability, efficiency and so on. In …

Northern electric grid of Italy was involved in a black start mock drill. This test took place on
November 2016 in order to check the coordination and efficiency of all the operational staffs …

A new adaptive velocity trajectory tracking control scheme for nonlinear shunt DC electric
motors subjected to unmeasurable variable load torque and parametric uncertainty is …

This paper proposes the application of Model Predictive Control (MPC) to ensure the
stability of an electric grid following fault conditions. The technique is firstly described as a …

In this study, a normal form based excitation controller for oscillatory dynamics in power
systems is investigated. Afterwards, instead of using a conventional linear control technique …

This paper proposes a novel control strategy to improve the stability and performance of the
linear feedback control (LC) by alleviating the nonlinearity of a synchronous generator (SG) …
