Abstract	In the rapidly evolving landscape of power systems, achieving a stable and efficient Automatic Generation Control (AGC) remains paramount. The exigency for this research stems from the critical role AGC plays in maintaining frequency and power balance amidst dynamic system changes. The consequences of inadequacies in AGC manifest as frequency deviations, system instabilities, and potential blackouts, with widespread socio-economic implications for different use cases. Historically, various controllers have been proposed and implemented to address AGC challenges. However, existing methodologies have displayed inherent limitations. Predominant issues include lack of adaptability to non-linearities, slow response times, inability to cater to the multifaceted nature of modern power grids with renewable integrations, and susceptibility to uncertainties and disturbances. This comprehensive review delves deep into the spectrum of controllers available for AGC, encompassing conventional PI/PID controllers, robust controllers, adaptive controllers, intelligent controllers, and the more recent forays into neural network-based and fuzzy logic controllers. Each controller's salient features, operational dynamics, advantages, and shortcomings are meticulously dissected. Furthermore, this paper elucidates the contexts in which each controller type excels or is found wanting, providing invaluable guidance for system designers and operators. In essence, this review serves as a holistic compass for stakeholders involved in power system operation and design. It offers both a retrospective understanding and prospective insights, assisting decision-makers in choosing the most suitable controller for a given scenario. Whether one aims to optimize AGC for a traditional grid, a grid with high renewable penetration, or a hybrid system, this paper promises to be an indispensable reference for researchers.
