Forecasting Tariff Rates and Enhancing Power Quality in Microgrids: The Synergistic Role of LSTM and UPQC

Abstract

The current paper presents an original approach into the microgrid control framework by incorporating LSTM-based optimization with specific emphasis on refining the gain parameters of a Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controller. This integration represents a significant advancement in improving the overall efficiency of microgrid control systems. By creatively applying LSTM optimization, the paper achieves dynamic adjustments of the PID controller's parameters, resulting in more precise regulation of output power quality. Through the utilization of the Unified Power Quality Conditioner (UPQC) in conjunction with LSTM-based optimization, the paper establishes a compelling link between improved power quality and the resultant tariff rates. This highlights their combined influence on enhancing power quality and calibrating tariff rates, providing a fresh perspective on optimizing microgrid operations.
