Sliding-Mode-based Frequency Stabilization of Renewable Power Systems

Automatic generation control (AGC) plays an important role in maintaining constant frequency in order to ensure the reliability of power systems. With the large-scale development of sustainable but intermittent sources such as wind and solar, such intermittency challenges the AGC problem. This book touches this topic and investigates some challenging issues. The book can be used for teaching a graduate-level special-topics course in power systems.
