Abstract

Reactive current poses a lots of problem in transmission systems and leads to increase in transmission losses and lowers the stability of a power system. In this work we try to present a technique for a three phase power transmission system which has a wide compensation range and low dc-link voltage and we call it as an Hybrid- STATCOM. As the system has a wide compensation range and low dc-link voltage, the system becomes quite inexpensive. In this paper, we present the circuit configuration of hybrid-STATCOM then its analysis on the basis of V-I characteristics along with the parameter selection criteria. As the we intend to avoid the potential resonance problem we try to develop the control strategy which achieves the same. Simulation are carried out to verify the dynamic performance of the proposed hybrid-STATCOM.
