Increasing load demands, variations in the operating conditions, continuous integration of the renewable energy sources constitute a multifarious challenge for the researchers to maintain the quality in performances of a load frequency controller. To contemplate such issues, a Gershgorin circle theorem inspired controller assimilated with the particle swarm optimization is proposed for multiarea power systems. The proposed method ensures system stability while abating the frequency variations in the operational areas and the power deviations in the interconnected tie-lines. The present analysis is substantiated through an interconnected photovoltaic (PV) integrated thermal power systems. Furthermore, the competence of the proposed method against increasing complexities is validated by considering an interconnected multimicrogrid systems consisting of renewable and nonrenewable energy sources. The performances of the proposed controller are demonstrated considering fixed and time-varying load disturbances, and fluctuations in renewable energy sources. Results corroborate that the proposed method is successful in maintaining the system stability while mitigating the frequency and the power deviations in all such operating conditions. A comparative analysis of the proposed method with prevalent control techniques (e.g., PI and PID-based controllers, tilt–integral–derivative, integral–tilt–derivative) and optimization algorithms (e.g., genetic algorithm, gravitational search algorithm, imperialist competitive algorithm) is presented to highlight the substantial performance improvements in the considered systems.
