풍력단지가 연계된 전력계통의 과도안정도를 보장하기 위해서는 전력계통과 풍력단지의 접속점에 풍력발전기가 충분한 무효전력을 공급할 수 있어야 한다. 하지만 개별의 풍력터빈은 안정도를 유지하기 위한 충분한 무효전력 공급능력을 가지지 못한다. 또한 풍력단지와 접속점 사이의 케이블은 리액턴스가 크고 이에 따른 무효전력 손실도 크다. STATCOM(Static Synchronous Compensator)은 고속으로 동작할 수 있고 충분한 무효전력을 공급할 능력을 가지고 있기 때문에 과도안정도를 향상시킬 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 풍력단지가 연계된 전력계통의 과도안정도 향상에 있어서 STATCOM의 유효성을 보인다. 접속점에 STATCOM을 설치하고 동적 모의를 한 결과 과도 안정도가 향상되는 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

최근 전력계통의 과부하, 전압안정도 등의 문제에 대한 해결책으로 FACTS (Flexible AC Transmission Systems)가 대두되고 있다. FACTS 설비에는 TCSC (Thyristor-Controlled Series Capacitor), SSSC (Static Synchronous Series Capacitor)와 같은 직렬 기기와 SVC(Static Var Compensator), STATCOM(STATic COMpensator) 와 같은 병렬기기 그리고, 본 논문에서 다루는 UPFC와 같은 직 병렬기기로 나누어진다. UPFC는 SSSC와 STATCOM을 결합한 형태로 유 무효전력을 동시에 보상할 수 있는 FACTS 기기이다. 본 논문에서는 한전 계통의 전압안정도 향상과 과부하 해소를 위해 강진S/S에 설치예정인 80MVA UPFC의 하드웨어 특성과 주변계통의 특성을 소개하고, UPFC와 한전 계통의 연계방안과 시험방안을 설명한다.

This paper deals with the performance analysis of static compensator (STATCOM) based voltage regulator for self­excited induction generators (SEIGs) supplying balanced/unbalanced and linear/ non-linear loads. In practice, most of the loads are linear. But the presence of non-linear loads in some applications injects harmonics into the generating system. Because an SEIG is a weak isolated system, these harmonics have a great effect on its performance. Additionally, SEIG's offer poor voltage regulation and require an adjustable reactive power source to maintain a constant terminal voltage under a varying load. A three-phase insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) based current controlled voltage source inverter (CC- VSI) known as STATCOM is used for harmonic elimination. It also provides the required reactive power an SEIG needs to maintain a constant terminal voltage under varying loads. A dynamic model of an SEIG-STATCOM system with the ability to simulate varying loads has been developed using a stationary d-q axes reference frame. This enables us to predict the behavior of the system under transient conditions. The simulated results show that by using a STATCOM based voltage regulator the SEIG terminal voltage can be maintained constant and free from harmonics under linear/non linear and balanced/unbalanced loads.

This paper presents a novel integrated structure for a cascaded distribution static compensator (D-STATCOM) and distribution transformer for medium-voltage reactive power compensation. The cascaded multilevel converter is connected to a system via a group of special designed taps on the primary windings of the Dyn11 connection distribution transformer. The three-phase winding taps are symmetrically arranged and the connection point voltage can be decreased to half of the line-to-line voltage at most. Thus, the voltage stress for the D-STATCOM is reduced and a compromise between the voltage rating and the current rating can be achieved. The spare capacity of the distribution transformer can also be fully used. The working mechanism is explained in detail and a modified control strategy is proposed for reactive power compensation. Finally, both simulation and scaled-down prototype experimental results are provided to verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed connection structure and control strategy.

This paper presents a new stand-alone wind-based induction generator system with constant frequency and adjustable output voltage. The proposed generator consists of a six-phase cage-rotor induction machine with two separate three-phase balanced stator windings and a three-phase space vector pulse width modulation inverter that operates as a static synchronous compensator (STATCOM). The first stator winding is fed by the STATCOM and used to excite the machine while the second stator winding is connected to the generator external load. The main frequency of the STATCOM is determined to be constant and equal to the load-requested frequency. The generator output frequency is independent of the load power demand and its prime mover speed because the frequency of the induced emf in the second stator winding is the same as this constant frequency. A sliding mode control (SMC) is developed to regulate the generator output voltage. A second SMC is used to force the zero active power exchanged between the machine and the STATCOM. Some simulation and experimental results are presented to prove the validity and effectiveness of the proposed generator system.

Advanced controllers among Flexible AC Transmission System(FACTS) devices employ self-commutated switching converters, VSI (Voltage Sourced Inverters), as the synchronous voltage source. Such controllers are SSSC (Static Synchronous Series Compensator), STATCOM (Static Synchronous Compensator) and UPFC (Unified Power Flow Controller). UPFC is series-shunt combined controller. Its series and shunt inverters can be modeled as SSSC and STATCOM but the dependant relation between the inverters is very complex. For that reason, the complexity makes it difficult to develop the UPFC model by simply combining the SSSC and STATOM models when we apply the model for conventional power system dynamic simulation algorithm. Therefore, we need each relevant models of VSI type FACTS devices for power system analysis. This paper proposes a modeling approach which can be applied to modeling of VSI type FACTS devices. The proposed method using Newton-type current injection method can be used to make UPFC, SSSC, and STATCOM models. The proposed models are used for 2-area test system simulation, and the results verify their effectiveness.

In this paper, we studied the control strategy of applying STATCOM(static synchronous compensator) to mitigate the FIDVR(fault induced delayed voltage recovery) phenomenon. The proportion of motor loads is gradually increasing which might affect power system stability. Excessive reactive power consumption by the stall of the motor loads causes FIDVR phenomenon. In addition, the low inertia of the small HVAC(heating, ventilation and air conditioner) unit will not separate itself in the event of a contingency, causing system instability. For this reason, we have developed a control strategy that utilizes STATCOM efficiently through static and dynamic analysis. Case studies on a Korean power system have validated the performance of the proposed scheme under severe contingency scenarios. The results have verified that the proposed strategy can effectively mitigate FIDVR and improve the stability and reliability of the system.

This paper deals with the dynamic voltage control problem at the inverter end of a HVDC link when connected to a weak AC system which has the potential for harmonic instability and commutation failures. The dynamic voltage control problem is tackled with a STATCOM (Static Compensator), which not only provides a rapid recovery from harmonic instability and commutation failures but also offers a lower cost filter design for HVDC systems. PSCAD/EMTDC simulations are presented to validate the proposed topology and to demonstrate its robust performance.

This paper describes the development of the transient analysis model of 345[kV] 100[MVA] STATCOM and the result of the performance analysis. The Korea power utility company, KEPCO began a commercial operation of a 100[MVA] STATCOM(Static synchronous COMpensator) at 345[kV] Migeum substation in Seoul. In order to operate a new control device like STATCOM to the power system, suitable transient model is needed. Therfore, Korea Electric Power Coporation(KEPCO) developed a transient analysis models using EMTDC/PSCAD. The development of this transient analysis model is based on the actual STATCOM S/W algorithm and H/W specification that was provided by its manufacture. Through this model, the transient/dynamic performance of STATCOM at Migeum substation can be analyzed.
