Abstract: The power system structure is complicated and the demand is increasing rapidly. In order to minimize the power losses and to reduce the power shortage, Distribution Generation (DG) is added in the power system. Microturbine Generation (MTG) is a new type of DG which has become popular source of electric power industries due to their fuel flexibility, reliability, power quality and its size. In this paper, the modelling and simulation analysis of the MTG system are carried out with Fractional Order Proportional Integral Derivative (FOPID) controller to improve the overall performance of MTG system. The performance of the MTG system is studied under various linear and non-linear load conditions. The Microturbine model and converter controller models are simulated using MATLAB Software. FOPID controller is used to maintain constant voltage for various load conditions by maintaining the torque of the Microturbine (MT) system. The power quality of MTG system is analyzed using Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) Analysis. To improve the power quality, LCL filter is added in this paper. The overall performance of MTG system is analyzed with and without FOPID controller. When the results are compared with conventional PI controller, the MTG system shows better performance in FOPID controller.
