FACTS-based reactive power compensation of wind energy conversion system abstract Voltage control and reactive power compensation in a distribution network with embedded wind energy conversion system (WECS) represent main concern of this paper. The WECS is of a fixed speed/constant frequency type that is equipped with an induction generator driven by an unregulated wind turbine. The problem is viewed from short term (10 seconds) and mid-term (10 minutes) time domain responses of the system

Transmitting power at high voltage and in DC form instead of AC is a new technology proven to be economic and simple in operation which is HVDC transmission. HVDC transmission systems‚ when installed‚ often form the backbone of an electric power system. They combine high reliability with a long useful life. An HVDC link avoids some of the disadvantages and limitations of AC transmission. HVDC transmission refers to that the AC power generated at a power plant is transformed into DC power before its

energy production India has a power grid that is ripe for renovation and transformation. More than a third of the nation’s grid electricity is lost to power theft and inefficiencies‚ and that doesn’t include the half of the population that has no grid electricity at all. For those who do‚ daily blackouts are a common occurrence‚ and major system-wide failures‚ like last year’s blackout that left 600 million people in the dark‚ point to long-term challenges in matching power supply with booming demand
