About AGC An AGC is a closed loop control system that controls multiple generators in an interconnected power system within a specified area. Generators are usually equipped with a primary controller for controlling frequency/active power control and voltage/ reactive power control; however, in a grid there are multiple generators that have to function in tandem with each other. AGC is used as a secondary controller for multiple generators. This system will ensure that the frequency and voltage is within a specified range even between the interconnected utility connection, and share the total power generated between assigned generators. Technavio’s analysts forecast the global automatic generation control (AGC) market to grow at a CAGR of 2.83% during the period 2016-2020. Covered in this report The report covers the present scenario and the growth prospects of the global automatic generation control (AGC) market for 2016-2020. To calculate the market size, the report considers the application of AGC, as it helps monitor and control power and frequency of an electric grid to acceptable levels. The market is divided...
