Voltage stability is necessary in order to maintain the health of the grid system. In recent years, the load demand is increasing from time-to-time which compromised the stability of the system. On that purpose, several methods on enhancing the voltage stability of the system was introduced such as the transformer tap and FACTS devices. In a general overview, this study is to propose a several power compensation techniques on the base case of an IEEE-33 bus whereby power flow analysis using Netwon- Raphson in PSS/E software is performed. Afterwards, distributed generation (DG) and Static VAR Compensator (SVC) will be implemented within the distribution network to compensate the voltage instability losses based on the weakest index from the bus system. From both the cases which is proposed earlier, a comparison study is conducted on the performance on both DG and SVC within the proposed network.

With the ever increasing demand of power, the major concern that has aroused is the problem of voltage instability. Due to voltage instability several major power system failures and blackouts occur. Voltage stability thus becomes a necessity. For this FACTS devices like SVC, STATCOM, etc. are used. Load Flow analysis and Continuation Power Flow Analysis is done to identify the weak buses and FACTS devices are installed in these weak buses to enhance the voltage stability. This paper presents a network formulation of IEEE 30 Bus test system using MATLAB and PSAT software and then comparing the effect of SVC and STATCOM for voltage stability enhancement.

There are now a lot of distributed generation (DG) using asynchronous machines are connected to power distribution grid. These machines do not usually generate reactive power, even consume reactive power, so they generally affect the voltage stability of whole power grid, and can cause instability in itself it is no longer balanced by the torque to work. In this paper, we investigate the voltage stability problem of the asynchronous machine of wind turbines used in power distribution networks. From the static model of the asynchronous machine, this paper will apply the pragmatic criteria to analysis the voltage stability of the asynchronous machine based on the results of the power flow in power distribution network.

Recently the wind power generation has attracted special interest and many wind power stations are being in service in the world. In the wind turbine that mostly uses induction generators, tend to drain large amounts of Vars from the grid, potentially causing low voltage and may be voltage stability problems for the utility owner, especially in the case of large load variation on distribution feeder. Voltage-source converter based various FACTS devices have been used for flexible power flow control, secure loading and damping of power system oscillations. Some of those are used also to improve transient and dynamic stability of the wind power generation (WPGS).

Abstract With the development of intelligent distribution networks and the increasing demand for new energy access, the isolated bidirectional dc-dc converter has become a key link in modern energy transformation systems. In order to realize the functions of electrical transformation and electrical isolation of dc voltage, this paper proposes a structure of isolated bidirectional dc-dc converter, and analyzes it in detail. The proposed isolated bidirectional dc-dc converter can not only realize voltage transformation, but also have voltage regulation and fault isolation functions. Finally, based on the MATLAB/Simulink simulation platform, the proposed isolated bidirectional dc-dc converter topology is built and verified by simulation. The structure of isolated bidirectional dc-dc converter not only has the functions of voltage transformation and electrical isolation, but also has fault isolation, power flow control and other functions.

Very few publications have been focused on the mathematical modeling of Flexible Alternating Current Transmission Systems (FACTS) -devices in optimal power flow analysis. A Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitors (TCSC) model has been proposed, and the model has been implemented in a successive QP. The mathematical models for TCSC have been established, and the Optimal Power Flow (OPF) problem with these FACTS-devices is solved by Newtons method. This article employs the Newton- based OPF-TCSC solver of MATLAB Simulator, thus it is essential to understand the development of OPF and the suitability of Newton-based algorithms for solving OPF-TCSC problem. The proposed concept was tested and validated with TCSC in twenty six-bus test system. Result shows that, when TCSC is used to relieve congestion in the system and the investment on TCSC can be recovered, with a new and original idea of integration.
