This paper presents the stability enhancement of four parallel-operated offshore Wind Turbine Generators (WTGs) is connected to an onshore power system using a Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM). The operating characteristics of each of the four WTGs are simulated by wind permanent magnet synchronous generator while the onshore power system is simulated by a Synchronous Generator (SG) fed...

AbstractIn modern power system, Static Compensator (STATCOM) is used to alleviate the transient stability problem and damping power system oscillations. In this paper different STATCOM control scheme using fuzzy logic controller (FLC) and model predictive controller (MPC) for the Single Machine Infinite Bus (SMIB) system in improving transient stability is simulated using MATLAB/ Simulink in po...

In recent years, the doubly fed induction generators (DFIGs) are used in modern wind power plants. These generators have a large impact on the stability of power system. In this paper, we examine the stability of DFIG wind turbines with static synchronous compensator (STATCOM). Optimal tuning of STATCOM control Parameters is very important in order to proper Performance of STATCOM as a stabiliz...

Abstract: Electric vehicles (EVs) have been gaining popularity in recent years due to growing concerns about fuel depletion and increasing petrol prices. Random uncoordinated charging of multiple EVs at residential distribution feeders with moderate penetration levels is expected in the near future. This paper describes a high performance voltage controller for the EVs charging system, and prop...

In this paper, the goal is the improvement of transient condition in a single machine system with designing of the nonlinear controllers for static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM). By obtaining the Lyapunov function in presence of compensator in the system, some controllers are designed for it which by satisfying the Lyapunov stability criteria will increase the margin of transient stability ...

The existing distribution networks were designed at a time when there was virtually no embedded generation. design methods ensured the voltage various parts of network remained within limits required by standards, and for most part, this very successfully achieved. As Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) started to grow, rise in due injected currents local impedances push voltages toward, even a...

Flexible alternating current transmission system (FACTS) controllers are important to enhance the quality of power in systems. The stability a is achieved via FACTS device (a Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM)). This paper aims control losses during peak energy demand circumstances with minimal economical and functional efficiency system. STATCOM operation seven level voltage source conve...
