Design and Simulation of Reactive Power Compensator Using STATCOM for Wind Power Plant

Mahesh.R

Abstract: Wind power has gotten the most central vitality source among the green sources in the course of the last not many decades. The fundamental situation that deflects the combination of this vitality into the matrix is the voltage fluctuation and low dependability of the breeze turbine engenderers (WTG). These troubles can be illuminated by using creations regularly kenned as FACTS (Flexible Alternate Current Transmission Frameworks), all the more solidly the Static synchronous compensator (STATCOM), which utilizes the guideline of receptive force infusion or assimilation into the framework Ride through flaw ability and minimization of voltage change using STATCOM. The STATCOM utilized is IGBT predicated PWM Cascade inverter that utilizes an early control framework which gives some extra progresses over the regular STATCOMs
