In a DC circuit that is what is done and that is
intuitively obvious. In an AC circuit, it's a whole lot more
complicated and I cannot think of a simple, emailable,
written explanation that would explain that.
If we had a DC system, it's clear how this would
be handled: The increased load would cause the
voltage to drop. An op-amp would notice this,
and would inform the generators to increase their
output. This is easy to arrange, by increasing
the excitation in the field coils.
You might imagine that the AC system works the
same way, but it doesn't.
