Abstract:

The distributed and unpredictable character of renewable energy sources is creating significant provocation for the working of the power system. Particularly when the entry of inverter-based frameworks is considerable, the integrity of the framework may be at risk. The answer to supporting the future expansion of dispersed frameworks is seen as a characteristic of capacity and the lawful strategy of regulators. To maintain the framework's unshakable quality at the highest possible level, control approaches should be designed to provide the framework with the necessary assistance and be suited for keeping the variation of recurrence inside cutoff points. The main issues include the frequency stability of present systems, minimizing delay by adding power after failure scenarios, and a lack of understanding of the distinction between inertia and rapid frequency response. This research employed the Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) and advanced Harris Hawk optimization (EHHO) methods for power and frequency control in low inertia systems to increase frequency stability. Effective results are obtained from the experimental comparison of the proposed model with the existing model, like perturb and observe (P&O) algorithm.
