An interconnected power system with large scale of wind power integration is taken as our research object. In order to keep the stability of frequency, a PSO based load frequency controller is proposed. According to the amount of area control error (ACE), traditional load frequency controller is to adjust the output of units in order to make ACE approach to zero. Then output from all generators is matched to the demand from load. Output from wind units is taken as a negative load and an equivalent load is formed. Intelligent PSO is introduced into traditional load frequency controller and is expected to improve the control performance. The simulation based on the model, which is constructed on Matlab/Simulink platform demonstrates that, for the new design controller, its performance index whether frequency error of interconnected network or exchange flow for the interconnected line is better than that of traditional load frequency controller.
