2. CONTENT • Voltage stability • Harmonic/ SSR stability • Renewable Dispersed Energy Systems

3. FACTS Flexible AC Transmission System (Facts) is a new integrated concept based on power electronic switching converters and dynamic controllers to enhance the system utilization and power transfer capacity as well as the stability, security, reliability and power quality of AC system interconnections.

4. OPPORTUNITIES • Control power so that it flows on the desired routes. • Increase loading capacity of transmission lines. • Prevent blackouts. • Improve generation productivity. • Effective use of upgrading/ uprating.

5. FACTS KEY DEVICES • Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) • Static Synchronous Series Compensator (SSSC) • Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC)

6. STATIC SYNCHRONOUS COMPENSATOR (STATCOM) • It is a static synchronous generator as shunt static var compensator whose capacitive or inductive current can be controlled independent of the system voltage. • The STATCOM scheme in parallel with AC power grid system and is controlled by a dynamic controller as shown in Fig.1.

7. Fig.1 Sample three-Bus study test system with the STATCOM located at bus B2 to stabilize the AC system

8. Novel Controller • The new control system is based on a decoupled control strategy using both direct and quadrature current components of the STATCOM AC current. • The operation of the STATCOM scheme is Validated in both the capacitive and inductive modes of operation. Fig. 2 Proposed STATCOM Decoupled Control System

9. Preliminary Simulation Results System is subjected to load switching at t=0.5 sec (inductive load added), t=1 sec (capacitive load added) and t=1.5 (Both inductive and capacitive load removed)

10. STATIC SYNCHRONOUS SERIES COMPENSATOR • It is a static synchronous generator operated without an external energy source as a series compensator. • The o/p voltage is in quadrature with and controllable independently of the line current. • It is increase or decrease the overall reactive voltage drop across the line and thereby controlling the transmitted electric power.

12. Novel Controller • The main function of the SSSC is to regulate the TL power flow PL. This can be accomplished by either direct control of the line current or indirect control by compensating for the TL impedance, Xs via a compensating injected voltage, Vs. Fig. 4. Control Structure of the SSSC scheme. Xref = Negative Vs lags IL by 90° plus (Capacitive Compensation) Xref = Positive Vs Leads IL by 90° plus (Inductive Compensation)

13. SUPPLEMENTARYT CONTROL LOOP DESIGN IN SSSC • To enhance the dynamic performance of the SSSC device an supplementary regulator loop is added using the dc capacitor voltage. • The operation of the SSSC scheme is validated in both the capacitive and inductive modes of operation under severe disturbance such as switching loads and fault condition Fig.5. Supplementary regulator for the SSSC controller to reduce oscillatory

16. UNIFIED POWER FLOW CONTROLLER (UPFC) • The UPFC scheme consists of two basic switching power converter namely shunt and series converters connected to each other through a dc link capacitor. • The shunt converter operates exactly as STATCOM for reactive power compensation and voltage stabilization. • The series converter operates as SSSC to control the real power flow Fig.8. FACTS UPFC controller scheme

17. PROPOSED NOVEL CONTROL STRATEGY The developed novel control strategy for the UPFC scheme is based on the magnitude and angle of series inserted voltage and shunt reactive current. • Novel Control in the STATCOM shunt converter 1 • SSSC-Converter (2) controller Fig.9.

20. POWER QUALITY ENHANCEMENT • This chapter studies the power system power quality and harmonics and SSR/ Tortional stability enhancement to reduce harmonics, improve the power quality and enhance the system harmonic stability. • Three different cases were studied in order to improve power quality and enhance system stability using a novel Active Power Filter (APF) combining with and Tuned arm filterswitched capacitive compensation.

21. A COMBINED CAPACITIVE COMPENSATION AND ACTIVE POWER FILTER • The Power Filter Scheme The power filter scheme consists of both a passive filter and active filter. The passive filter removes any load harmonics just as a conventional one does and the added active filter plays a role in improving the filtering action. Fig. 12.a. Sample study of the unified power system
