An optimized fractional order virtual synchronous generator with superconducting magnetic energy storage unit for microgrid frequency regulation enhancement.

ABSTRACT: The Virtual Synchronous Generator (VSG) provides inertia and damping virtually, which plays a crucial role in enhancing the frequency stability of the microgrid. However, the virtual inertia added in the VSG increases the order of the system, which increases the likelihood of output real power fluctuations in the transient state, which is potentially dangerous for system stability. Hence, this paper introduces a new approach for frequency regulation in an isolated microgrid using a Fractional Order Virtual Synchronous Generator (FOVSG) which involves more degrees of freedom, integrated with a Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage (SMES) unit. The parameters of the FOVSG and Fractional Order Proportional Integral Derivative (FOPID) controllers are optimized by the African Vulture Optimiza
