Abstract
Systems and methods include an AC motor and one or more gas turbine generators configured to provide electrical power to the AC motor. The system also includes a controller configured to control operation of the one or more gas turbine generators by determining that the AC motor is to be started using the electrical power. Upon a determination that the AC motor is to be started using the electrical power, the controller is configured to boost the electrical power prior to starting the AC motor. The controller uses the boosted electrical power to pre-compensate for a drop in an electrical parameter of the electrical power due to an increased demand for the startup of the AC motor.
