In order to meet the electricity needs of domestic or commercial buildings, solar energy is more attractive than other renewable energy sources in terms of its simplicity of installation, less dependence on the field and its economy. It is possible to extract solar energy from photovoltaic (PV) including rooftop, ground-mounted, and building integrated PV systems. Interest in rooftop PV system applications has increased in recent years due to simple installation and not occupying an external area. However, the negative effects of increased PV penetration on the distribution system are troublesome. The power loss, reverse power flow (RPF), voltage fluctuations, voltage unbalance, are causing voltage quality problems in the power network. On the other hand, variations in system frequency, power factor, and harmonics are affecting the power quality. The excessive PV penetration also the root cause of voltage stability and has an adverse effect on protection system. The aim of this article is to extensively examines the impacts of rooftop PV on distribution network and evaluate possible solution methods in terms of the voltage quality, power quality, system protection and system stability. Moreover, it is to present a comparison of the advantages/disadvantages of the solution methods discussed, and an examination of the solution methods in which artificial intelligence, deep learning and machine learning based optimization and techniques are discussed with common methods.

The aim of this paper is to use renewable energy sources to meet the demand for electricity. For DC-AC conversion, a solar-powered three-phase grid-connected system with a boost (DC-DC) converter and three-phase inverter is used. The updated Perturb and Observe (P&O) Algorithm is used to map the solar photovoltaic system's maximum power point. Synchronous Reference Frame-Phase Locked Loop Theory is used to compensate for harmonic and reactive power. This proposed grid-connected system is used to improve the system's power efficiency as well as extract the full power and feed it to the distribution system. Using Matlab tools, the simulation result demonstrates reasonable efficiency.

End-user equipment fails or malfunctions because to power quality issues. Outages and service interruptions affect utility distribution networks, sensitive industrial loads, and important commercial operations, resulting in considerable financial losses for everybody involved. With the restructuring of power networks and the transition towards distributed and scattered generation, the issue of power quality will take on new dimensions. Take positive efforts in this area in developing countries like India, where the volatility in power frequency and many other variables of power quality are serious concerns. As a result of this study, measures that can improve the quality of power are advised. Three-stage control transmission framework with wide compensation range was proposed for Hybrid Static Synchronous Compensator (half and half D-STATCOM) by this technology. Due to these distinct properties, the cost of the framework can be drastically reduced. The circuit design of mixed D-STATCOM is provided first in this proposal. Its V–I trademark is then dissected, studied, and compared to D-STATCOM, which is more common. Finally, a parameter configuration for framework is provided, taking into account the range in which the compensating power is available and avoiding the potential reverberation issue. As a result of this, a control methodology is proposed for half-and-half D-STATCOM to allow operation under diverse voltage and current situations, such as unequal current flow, a voltage plunge, and a voltage shortfall As a final step, a reenactment and test results are provided to verify the planned half breed D-large STATCOM's pay range and high level of performance.

Unified Power Quality Compensator (UPQC) is used to protect the sensitive loads in the distribution system from voltage and current disturbances. The compensation capability of UPQC depends on the control strategies used for shunt and series converters. Conventional adaptive hysteresis controller pulse width modulation technique had failed to track exactly during transient conditions and disturbances at load and source side. In paper fuzzy adaptive hysteresis controller is proposed for three phase four wire UPQC for compensating voltage sag/swell, current harmonics, voltage harmonics and neutral current compensation. Fuzzy adaptive hysteresis controller can effectively compensate the power quality problems during the transient conditions. A comparative simulation analysis of proposed and conventional methods are presented   in this paper using MATLAB/SIMULINK tool.

This paper is intended to simulate a power quality conditioning device, Unified Power Quality Conditioner (UPQC), in countryside areas for non-linear loading. From past decades there is much increase in the requirement of the good quality electrical power in single phase distribution grids established in these locations. Due to technical advancement, three-phase loads are practiced more than single phase loads so that the demand for three phase distribution grids is growing. But the installation process of three-phase grids, at countryside areas, is not an economic option and to get access to these systems is a very challenging task. So a neighbouring three-phase distribution system is required to be established at the location, where single-phase to three-phase UPQC with single wire earth return is appropriate for the end user due to economic considerations. A dual compensation strategy is implemented to obtain the reference quantities for controlling the converters. The proposed idea is accomplished to eliminate voltage harmonics and mitigate further instabilities and power quality problems. This system allows the balanced and regulated voltage with lower harmonic content. Synchronous Reference Frame (SRF) based controllers are considered to organize the input grid current and the load voltages of the UPQC. The present prototype under consideration analyses and validates the compensation and controlling techniques using PI controller. The control strategies are simulated using MATLAB/SIMULINK.
