Abstract
A method for quickly controlling the output of a power plant having a turbo-generator set with a steam turbine and a generator, activates energy storage present during a plant process in order to set an additional generator output. In order to achieve a particularly effective control, fuzzy logic is used for the controlled activation of the energy storage. Fuzzy-logic rules from experience at the plant are used in this process. An apparatus for carrying out the method includes a fuzzy-logic system having inputs which include the additional generator output and an energy situation of the activatable storage, and outputs that specify desired setting values for the degree of activation of the individual energy storage.
