Due to unpredicted non-linear loads, power quality problems, a raise in the transmission system. One such problem is voltage sag. Voltage sag is caused by the non-linear load which demands reactive power, but the balanced 3F source provides required reactive power of the load with reduced voltage at the receiving end. In this paper, simulation study has been performed to reducethe voltage sag issue. A transmission system with generation source with different loading conditions is considered and study has been done. A 3F medium P model transmission line is designed with a power source of 11kV.  A shunt connected compensation unit called Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) reduces the voltage sag in the transmission line. STATCOM provides the required reactive power demanded by the non-linear load along with the source for compensation of voltage sag. The STATCOM circuit comprises of Voltage source converter(VSC) unit and a DC source. Reactive power compensation is done by VSC unit firing angle control. The source of the STATCOM can also be from renewable energy system. This AC source is converted by a AC-DC-AC converter unit.The firing angle is controlled by the control unit which ensures the continuous and balanced power flow even under sudden change in load conditions. The simulation results depict the characteristics of the developed STATCOM.

This paper presents performance analysis of Unified Power Quality Conditioner-Battery Energy Storage (UPQC-BES) system supplied by Photovoltaic (PV)-Wind Hybrid connected to three phase three wire (3P3W) of 380 volt (L-L) and 50 hertz distribution system. The performance of supply system is compared with two renewable energy (RE) sources i.e. PV and Wind, respectively. Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC) is implemented to maintain DC voltage across the capacitor under disturbance scenarios of source and load as well as to compare the results with Proportional Intergral (PI) controller. There are six scenarios of disturbance i.e. (1) non-linear load (NL), (2) unbalance and nonlinear load (Unba-NL), (3) distortion supply and non-linear load (Dis-NL), (4) sag and non-linear load (Sag-NL), (5) swell and non-linear load (Swell-NL), and (6) interruption and non-linear load (Inter-NL). In disturbance scenario 1 to 5, implementation of FLC on UPQC-BES system supplied by three RE sources is able to obtain average THD of load voltage/source current slightly better than PI. Furthermore under scenario 6, FLC applied on UPQC-BES system supplied by three RE sources gives significantly better result of average THD of load voltage/source current than PI. This research is simulated using Matlab/Simulink.
