SUMMARYRecently, there has been growing interest in utilizing dispersed generation systems, which are grouped into micro turbine systems, co-generation systems, and so on, as a substitute for fuel oil energy and a technology to prevent global warming. Since start-up time of dispersed generation systems is short, it is possible to operate systems to supply load power corresponding to a demand. Moreover, PPSs (Power Producers and Suppliers) can participate in a power retail sales company, since deregulation of electric utilities was instituted in March 2000. However, PPSs have to keep instantaneous generating power commissioning rule, to maintain supply-and-demand balance between customer and supplier. Therefore, in this paper, we examine instantaneous generating power commissioning for dispersed generators where start-up time is short and it is possible to operate systems to supply a power load corresponding to a demand. We adopt a PI controller as a controller. The system is composed of double control loop in inner loop and in outer loop. In inner loop electric power is controlled and in outer loop electric energy is controlled. The controller parameters are designed using the pole-placement technique. The effectiveness of the proposed control system is confirmed by simulations.
