    Abstract: Various distribution side controllers for power systems are disclosed. Power systems includes a power generation subsystem and one or more distribution networks. Power systems may also include a transmission system coupled between the power generation subsystem and the distribution networks. The distribution side controller monitors the operation and availability of power from distributed power sources coupled to its respective distribution network, as well as load demand from loads on the distribution network. The distribution side controller may also monitor conditions on the distribution network to identify a power imbalance within the distribution network. The distribution side controller responds to such imbalances to reduce their effect on the power system as a whole. In some embodiments, multiple distribution side controllers for various distribution networks may cooperate to provide efficient power generation for the whole power systems. In some embodiments, an AGC that controls the power generation subsystem also operates in coordination with one or more distribution side controllers.
