This paper presents a comprehensive RMS-based phasorial model of an E-STATCOM with grid-forming (GFM) control, designed to improve power system stability in isolated grids. Unlike previous approaches, this model integrates a governor with an internal...
Renewable energy resources (RERs) play a vital role in reducing greenhouse gases, as well as balancing the power generation demand in daily life. Due to the high penetration of RERs and non-linear loads into utility power systems, various power quali...
Power Quality (PQ) has become a significant issue in power networks. Power quality disturbances must be precisely and appropriately identified. This activity involves identifying, classifying, and mitigating power quality problems. A case study of th...
This research deals with the problem regarding the optimal siting and sizing of distribution static compensators (D-STATCOMs) via the application of a master–slave optimization technique. The master stage determines the nodes where the D-STATCO...
In low-voltage grids with a wide spread of domestic and/or small commercial consumers, mostly single-phase, problems can appear due to unbalanced power consumption between the different phases. These problems are mainly caused due to voltage unbalanc...
Power Quality (PQ) improvement in grid-integrated photovoltaic (PV) and wind energy hybrid systems for effective power transfer is presented in this paper. Due to interlinked hybrid renewable energy resources and nonlinear loads, various issues arise...
Currently, with the quick increase in global population, the energetic crisis, the environmental problematic, and the development of the power electronic devices generated the need to include new technologies for supporting and potentiating electrica...
In this paper, we address the problem of intelligent operation of Distribution Static Synchronous Compensators (D-STATCOMs) in power distribution systems to reduce energy losses and CO2 emissions while improving system operating conditions. In additi...
In recent modern power systems, the number of renewable energy systems (RESs) and nonlinear loads have become more prevalent. When these systems are connected to the electricity grid, they may face new difficulties and issues such as harmonics and no...
Reliability and safety must be carefully considered in today’s power systems, which are rapidly evolving toward ever higher penetration of renewable, inverter-based generation units. Power systems are constantly stressed by active power disturb...
Research on applying selective harmonic elimination pulse width modulation (SHE-PWM) to high power converters has drawn tremendous interest, due to the advantages of low switching frequency and high output harmonic performance. In the fields of high...
The sampling-to-update delay and fixed-point word length that a PV-STATCOM current controller can tolerate during ride-through are rarely quantified against ride-through metrics, and complete fixed-point FPGA fast paths are rarely reported with post-...
Modern distribution mechanisms within the smart grid paradigm are considered both reliable in nature and interconnected in topology. In this paper, a multiple-criteria-based sustainable planning (MCSP) approach is presented that serves as a future pl...
