An AGC Real-Time Algorithm for Hydropower Station and its Application
一种水电站最优发电实时控制算法及其应用

A new real-time control algorithm for the Automatic Generation Control (AGC) of hydropower station is developed in this paper. The algorithm is quite powerful to optimize the load sharing of hydro generation units and the combination of the operating units. Based on the algorithm, a real-time control system has been designed and operated as a part of the supervisory system in Huangtankuo Hydropower Station, Zhejiang Province. The operation shows that the algorithm has stronger stability and optimality and is suitable to real-time control.
