Optimal Placement and Sizing of Static VAR Compensator (SVC) for Voltage Stability Enhancement in Wind Integration Power System

The goal of this project is to utilise MATLAB to model and simulate a Static Var Generation (SVC) for electrical system research. First, we used MathCAD to perform a mathematical rating study of the SVC. The Static Var Compensation (SVC) in power systems was then modelled in order to examine its behaviour both inside and outside of the control range. This involved using analysis of load flow to make the implementation of SVC easier. The SVC transfer operations with open-loop controls for each of the different control elements—such as the voltage regulator, thyristor susceptance control, and measurement modules—were then separately modelled. We set up the open and a closed-l transfer equations by using the lag/lead compensator theories, taking into account their individual phase margins and gain. Lastly, we used the SVC gadget to regulate the power system’s reactive power and voltage flow. We were able to evaluate the SVC’s performance and behaviour under various operating settings because to this thorough approach, which also gave us important insights into its possible uses in power systems.
