Integration of distributed generation and renewable energy resources in contemporary power systems necessitates sophisticated control techniques to maintain efficiency and stability. Adaptive fuzzy control (AFC) mechanisms introduce a smart methodology for handling uncertainty and variability in virtual power plants (VPPs) and smart grids. AFC improves immunity against voltage and frequency fluctuations through dynamic adaptation of control parameters as per real-time grid conditions. This strategy allows for effective load balancing, demand response, and fault tolerance, minimizing power losses and enhancing overall energy efficiency. AFC uses fuzzy logic concepts to make decisions in real... More >
