V. CONCLUSION
The most important aspect of any power generation system
is the generation control. Several techniques can be
implemented to control the generator in power plant. The
method that has to be used relies on varied objectives like
superior quality, increased efficiency, high profit and other
such points depending upon the purpose. With the prime
objective of catering to these necessities and the needs of the
industrial sector, significance has been given here to
automation. This paper presented here has kept in mind, the
ceaseless changes that are relentlessly taking place in the
contemporary scenario of the industrial segment. Emphasis
has been given to the automation process that is now rapidly
taking its place in all the power plants across the globe. The
Paper has furnished itself to study the integral parts of the
entire process involved, their implementation and the
problems that may show up have also been given their due
importance.
