This chapter studies the problem of frequency regulation and active power sharing in inverter-based microgrids with time-varying voltages. Building upon the result in the previous chapter, we propose the design of internal-model-based controllers and analyze it within an (incrementally) passivity framework. A small case study indicates the effectiveness of the proposed solution. 3.1 A microgrid...

optimal capacitor placement, considering power system loss reduction, voltage profile improvement, line reactive power decrease and power factor correction, is of particular importance in power system planning and control. the distribution system operator calculates the optimal place, number and capacity of capacitors based on two major purposes: active power loss reduction and return on invest...

Thyristor rectifiers are widely used in electric railways in order to control the speed. As a consequence of their usage in addition to substantial input lead current, an enormous amount of harmonics is injected into the grid. To avoid such harmonics as well as reactive power compensation, reactive power hybrid filters consisting of active and passive filters are utilized. Regarding different p...

In this paper a hybrid active DC line conditioner for fluctuations and ripples reduction in voltage and current of DC power systems is proposed. Malfunctions in operation of equipments and systems which are supplied by low quality distribution power systems are one of the main effects of DC voltage ripple. In the proposed configuration a hybrid system including series and shunt active line ...

this paper presents a control strategy for fuel cell/energy storage power generation system during voltage sag conditions. the hybrid dc power sources are connected to grid using power electronic converters include dc-dc converter and grid connected voltage source inverter. the power from hybrid power sources is controlled during voltage sag by designing of control strategy for dc-dc converter....
