  1. 21. Mitigation of Background Harmonic Amplification at PCC Using Active Filtering of STATCOM

    University essay from KTH/Elkraftteknik

    Author : Luai Malki; [2017]
    Keywords : FACTS; Hybrid-STATCOM; TSC; TSR; VSC; passive filter; active filter; PWM; MMC; passivity; input admittance; resonance; harmonics; ABB;

    Abstract : Shunt compensation devices have been a powerful candidate for expanding the limits of transmission facilities, allowing more active power transport and supporting voltage and overall stability of the network. An example of such devices is the Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) which is based on Voltage Source Converter (VSC) which synthesizes output voltage and current for mainly reactive power compensation.

  2. 22. Application for Wind Farm Integration Complying with the Grid Code by Designing an Outer Control Strategy for the Converter.

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektro- och systemteknik (EES)

    Author : Alexandra Kapidou; [2016]
    Keywords : Wind Farm; STATCOM; Grid Code; Positive and Negative Sequence Current Controller; Reactive Power Compensation;

    Abstract : The continuously increasing energy penetration from wind farms into the grid raises concerns regarding power quality and the stable operation of the power system. The Grid Code´s requirements give strict guidelines for a wind farm´s behaviour under faulty or abnormal operating conditions. READ MORE

  3. 23. Evaluation of two distribution grids in terms of PV penetration limits and effectiveness of reactive power controls

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektro- och systemteknik (EES)

    Author : Leonard Hülsmann; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The large integration of photovoltaic (PV) systems as well as wind turbines in the distribution grid poses new challenges on various levels. One of them is the increased steady-state voltage in the low voltage (LV) as well as the medium voltage (MV) grid, caused by the distributed generation. READ MORE

  4. 24. Reactive Power Planning with Voltage Stability Constraints for Increasing Cross-Border Transmission Capacity

    University essay from KTH/Elektriska energisystem

    Author : Mana Farrokhseresht; [2015]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In this work Reactive Power Planning (RPP) is studied. It is the method which aims at locating reactive compensators of optimal size at an optimal location in order to achieve or optimize a certain objective. READ MORE

  5. 25. Automatic load shedding scheme and the integration of new capacitors’ controller in the South-West region of France to mitigate large scale voltage collapses

    University essay from KTH/Elektriska energisystem

    Author : Geoffrey Senac; [2014]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Since the modern world is totally dependent on electricity, it is necessary to ensure that electrical power is generated and transmitted to end users with minimum interruptions. Given the importance of electricity for the operation of our society, it is really important to fill continuously good safety conditions. READ MORE
