Popis: To realize the smart grid, distributed generation becomes essential and needs to be highlighted. The loading to such generations may hinder the system stability as the size as well as complexity increases. The study describes the load frequency control of multi-area system comprising of conventional thermal power plant and renewable-based small hydro plant (SHP) and solar thermal plant (STP). The frequency stability is maintained through recently used cascaded controller in which two controllers are connected in cascade fashion for achieving an enhanced result. To validate system stability, a time-varying load disturbance has been applied to the system. The gain parameters of the cascaded controller are tuned through Jaya algorithm. The dynamic interaction of the cascaded controller with the test system provides better results than the other controller schemes such as proportional–integral–derivative with filter (PIDF) and proportional–integral (PI)-based controller. A significant enhancement in the convergence time is perceived due to the efficient optimization of the controller for maintaining system stability.
