This paper presents new techniques of Automatic Generation Control (AGC) technology which are employed to increase the certain demand of power system stability and control. Today, power system control operation is fully automated with an Automatic Generation Control (AGC) technology and improves the reliability, productivity and efficiency of power industry. The power generating equipment can be controlled by maintaining the power system frequency at constant value. And power system frequency control is achieved by Automatic Generation Control (AGC) and governing systems of individual turbine-generators. This achieves the automation of whole power plant based on automatic control of water-turbine generator. Therefore the mechanism of Automatic Generation Control (AGC) makes operation limitation condition units that ensure the safe operation of power plant with the principle of Energy Management System and primary functions. At the time of carrying out these functions, it is necessary to avoid the frequent start/stop of units caused by short-term load fluctuation of power system and detail problems are discussed in the paper. At the end study is also focused in engineering problems and target function of Automatic Generation Control (AGC) in hydropower plant.
Author Keywords: AGC, Power System, Hydropower Plant, load distribution, active power control engineering problems.

Abstract
This paper presents new techniques of Automatic Generation Control (AGC) technology which are employed to increase the certain demand of power system stability and control. Today, power system control operation is fully automated with an Automatic Generation Control (AGC) technology and improves the reliability, productivity and efficiency of power industry. The power generating equipment can be controlled by maintaining the power system frequency at constant value. And power system frequency control is achieved by Automatic Generation Control (AGC) and governing systems of individual turbine-generators. This achieves the automation of whole power plant based on automatic control of water-turbine generator. Therefore the mechanism of Automatic Generation Control (AGC) makes operation limitation condition units that ensure the safe operation of power plant with the principle of Energy Management System and primary functions. At the time of carrying out these functions, it is necessary to avoid the frequent start/stop of units caused by short-term load fluctuation of power system and detail problems are discussed in the paper. At the end study is also focused in engineering problems and target function of Automatic Generation Control (AGC) in hydropower plant.
