The energy generation of a run of river hydropower plant depends upon theflow of river and the variations in the water flow makes the energy productionunreliable. This problem is usually solved by constructing a small pond infront of the run of river hydropower plant. However, changes in water level ofconventional single pond model results in sags, surges and unpredictable powerfluctuations. This work proposes three pond model instead of traditional singlepond model. The volume of water in three ponds is volumetrically equivalent tothe traditional single pond but it reduces the dependency of the run of riverpower plant on the flow of river. Moreover, three pond model absorbs the watersurges and disturbances more efficiently. The three pond system, modeled asnon-linear hydraulic three tank system, is being applied with fuzzy inferencesystem and standard PID based methods for smooth and efficient levelregulation. The results of fuzzy inference system are across-the-board improvedin terms of regulation and disturbances handling as compared to conventionalPID controller.
