Abstract

The fast development of power electronic technology has made Flexible AC Transmission system (FACTS) a promising for power system performance enhancement. There are several problems associated with power transmission network expansion, like unbalanced voltages leads to instability. Voltage unbalances can be caused by unbalanced loads in the power system, while severe short term unbalanced voltages can be caused by power system faults. For overcome the problems of the voltage unbalance there is need of voltage source static var compensators such as static synchronous compensators (STATCOM).In this paper study of STATCOM controls for improving voltage stability.
