This paper proposes a method of power flow control using Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM). It has been demonstrated that the STATCOM has the capability of regulating the voltage and minimizing the power losses simultaneously. A suitable model of STATCOM is incorporated in a general program developed in MATLAB. Newton Raphson Algorithm has been used for power flow analysis. The Placement of STATCOM for optimal power flow control is demonstrated on an IEEE-14 Test Bus System. Results with and without STATCOM have been illustrated. PV and QV curves have been drawn for voltage stability analysis. The hardware model of STATCOM was also presented.

Abstract


This paper proposes a method of power flow control using Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM). It has been demonstrated that the STATCOM has the capability of regulating the voltage and minimizing the power losses simultaneously. A suitable model of STATCOM is incorporated in a general program developed in MATLAB. Newton Raphson Algorithm has been used for power flow analysis. The Placement of STATCOM for optimal power flow control is demonstrated on an IEEE-14 Test Bus System. Results with and without STATCOM have been illustrated. PV and QV curves have been drawn for voltage stability analysis. The hardware model of STATCOM was also presented.
