This paper gives the State Space modeling of Distribution Static Synchronous Compensator (D-STATCOM). It is important to keep the voltage constant in the distribution system, hence voltage regulation is required in the distribution network. Voltage Source Converter (VSC) based D-STATCOM achieves voltage regulation in the connected bus by absorbing/supplying the required reactive power. The capability...
This paper proposes a control methodology for interfacing medium and large photovoltaic (PV) arrays to the power system distribution grid. First, the structure of the PV system in grid-connected mode is introduced. It consists of a PV array in addition to a power conditioning system for grid interfacing purposes. The power conditioning system is composed of a DC-DC boost converter, followed by a current...
This paper discusses control and protection of power electronics interfaced distributed generation (DG) systems in a customer-driven microgrid (CDM). Particularly, the following topics will be addressed: microgrid system configurations and features, DG interfacing converter topologies and control, power flow control in grid-connected operation, islanding detection, autonomous islanding operation with...
This paper introduces a new method for sag mitigation in distribution networks by using the energy storage capability of a cascade inverter-type dynamic voltage restorer (DVR). A parametric analysis of the sag-control capability as a function of the load power factor is first conducted, and then used to design a new control strategy that optimizes the real energy injected by the DVR. The proposed...
