Nowadays, many thermal power plants are
established for the generation of electrical energy. In this study, the design
of a Gas Turbine Power Plant is analyzed in Ambarlı, Turkey. Then, conventional
and modern control techniques are applied for comparison. These controllers are
conventional proportional and integral (PI), particle swarm optimization based
proportional-integral (PSO-PI) and fuzzy gain scheduled proportional-integral
(FGPI). The results show that, the performance of  the proposed FGPI is  better than the conventional controllers on
settling time and overshoot of power outputs.
