A Status review of Incorporation of FACTS Controllers in Multi-Machine Power Systems for Enhancement of Damping of Power System and Voltage Stability

This paper presents exhaustive review of various methods/techniques for incorporation of differential algebraic equations (DAE) model of FACTS controllers in multi-machine power system environments for enhancement of different operating parameters viewpoint such as damping, voltage stability, voltage security, loadability, active power and energy losses, power transfer capability, cost of generation and FACTS controllers, dynamic performance, and others parameters point of view. It also reviews various current techniques/methods for incorporation of FACTS controllers in power systems through all over world. Authors strongly believe that this survey article will be very much useful to the researchers for finding out the relevant references in the field of incorporation of FACTS controllers in power system environments for enhancement of damping of power oscillations, voltage stability, voltage security, loadability, active power and energy losses, power transfer capability, cost of generation and FACTS controllers, dynamic performance, and others parameters point of view.
