Wind power generation is increasing rapidly in India and wind integration with the grid is considered as a promising source of energy, Double Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) being the most commonly used wind turbine generator, when integrated with the grid show challenges during grid faults. This paper focuses on the challenges faced by DFIG during the occurrence of voltage sags and the Low Volt...

This paper presents a comprehensive survey on the mitigation of power quality problems such as low power factor, shortage of reactive power, poor voltage, voltage and current harmonics due to sudden change in field excitation of synchronous alternator, sudden increased in load, sudden fault occur in the system are solved by FACTS controllers such as STATCOM, DSTATCOM, and DSTATCOM.

This paper deals with the loss allocation problem of any interconnected power system. In this paper, an attempt is made to minimize the transmission line loss using FACTS controllers. Two most commonly used FACTS controllers; TCSC and STATCOM are utilized here to reduce the loss. The contribution of system generators at a particular operating load has been calculated using power tracing algorit...

The role of multilevel inverters in improving power quality has been already proved long back ago. The major concern in using multi level inverters is the number of switches used in it. As the level of inverter increases. So there is a need to reduce the component count in multilevel inverter. In this paper we use a statcom which is consists of a multilevel inverter with reduced switch count. T...

Wind power is one of the optimistic sources of energy generation among all the renewable energy sources. Hence for exploiting wind energy sources it must be connected to electric grid. Wind power inculation into grid affects power quality because of its fluctuating nature. This paper recommends a control scheme based on instantaneous SRF (Synchronous Reference Frame) theory for compensating the...

With the development and advancement of power electronics devices in recent years, changes in the scenario in the field of controlling and handling the power quality issues have been very effective. FACTS devices are the outstanding approach. In this manuscript,we choose one such FACTS device known as STATCOM, a powerful shunt controller, for discussing its impact and depth how to tackle the po...

This paper proposes a control method of the modular multilevel converter based high voltage direct current (MMC-HVDC) system for the grid voltage stability instead of using a static synchronous compensator (Statcom). The d-axis current component is used to control the grid voltage via the reactive power. Meanwhile, the q-axis current component is employed to control the active power according t...

In general, reactive power compensation for power factor and stability of the supply system can be improved. The STATCOM (STATic synchronous Compensator) is being increasingly popular in power system applications. A small signal model of the STATCOM has been proposed without controlling DC link voltage. This scheme controls the phase angle as well as modulation index of the switching pattern. W...

In this work, a methodology to find the optimal allocation (i.e., sizing and location) of Distributed Generators (DGs) Distribution-static compensators (D-STATCOM) in radial distribution system (RDS) is proposed. Here, voltage stability index (VSI) utilized location for D-STATCOM, loss sensitivity factor (LSF) method distributed generation. proposed work formulated as non-linear optimization pr...
