1. An interconnected power system comprising:

  • a. a plurality of subsystems each having a plurality of power generation units coordinated by a local generation coordination control system for developing generating requirements for said units in response to subsystem generating requirements, said subsystems being interconnected to transmit power among each other;

    b. system digital computer means having a stored program for performing, at least at the rate of significant change of subsystem generating conditions, the function of explicitly calculating, for each of said subsystems, a subsystem dispatch signal as a function of power flow within each such subsystem, and c. transmission means for coupling, at least at said rate, status information from said local generation control systems to said system computer means, and for coupling, at least at said rate, corresponding subsystem dispatch signals back to control and to coordinate the operation of said power generation units.
