Conventional Power System Stabilizer (PSS) cannot provide effective damping to the inter-area oscillations. This paper deals with a Proportional Integral (PI) controller as a damping control scheme of the Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) to improve the damping of inter-area oscillation in a multimachine system. The proposed PI Controller-based UPFC is tuned using the Firefly Algorithm (FA), and the performance is compared with PSS. Simulation results show that the proposed PI Controller-based UPFC provides a better stability margin than PSS under the different conditions and effectively reduces the overshoot by 53%, accelerating the settling time by 74%, and minimizing the area graph by 85%.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Conventional power system stabilizers,Firefly algorithms,Inter-area oscillations,Interconnection systems,Multimachine systems,Power system stability,Proportional integral controllers,Unified power flow controllers[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Eigenvalue,Firefly algorithm,Inter-area oscillation,PI controller,UPFC[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]ACKNOWLEDGMENT This paper is supported by PT Perusahaan Listrik Negara (Persero).[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1109/SPIES48661.2020.9243095[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
