Abstract: Micro-Hydro Power Plant (MHPP) is one of popular renewable based power plants that appropriate to be installed in developing countries such as Indonesia due to its stability, efficient operation and economic point of view. Frequency stability of power plant systems refers to the ability of generator to maintain the steady frequency during and post faults and rapid dynamic load. In order to keep the stability of power system frequency from fluctuations, generating units change their power output automatically according to the change of the system frequency or load through balancing of the active power with the loads. To keep the stability frequency on MHPP, active power fast control is employed in this study and all the system of MHPP and the frequency control are carried out and simulated extensively using MATLAB/Simulink. With the active power control through fast valving mechanism using HSVC method, duration of stability frequency response is faster compared to the system without fast control.
