LFC: Load Frequency Control (a few minutes ~ 10+ minutes) Generator output is automatically controlled by detecting the imbalance and sending feedback signal to generators. EDC: Economic Dispatch Control (more than 10+ minutes) Generators are dispatched in accordance with the load forecast to achieve the minimum cost in longer period. ③ Measures against short-term output variation; (i) Increase the sensitivity of DEGs by improving GF (ii) Increase the capacity of LFC (iii) Examine coordination between GF and LFC (iv) Introduction of storage system (capacitor, battery, etc.) Smart integration of RE with DEG
