Innovative solutions with HVDC (High Voltage Direct Current) and FACTS (Flexible AC Transmission Systems)have the potential to cope with the system planning and operational challenges of global climate developments and the call for changes in the way electricity is supplied. New power electronic technologies with self-commutated converters make advanced technical features possible, such as independent control of active and reactive power, and the capability to supply weak or passive networks. As part of the overall planning considerations, this paper presents the fundamental system planning, modeling and operational challenges of connecting large wind farms (both onshore and offshore) via long transmission systems, as well as the practical applications of traditional and new power electronic technologies.
In this perper. ci non-linear control scheme fiw tile TCSC (thyristor-c~ontrollecl series compensator) to deimpen power oscillations and to improve the trcinsient stability of power systems is presentecl. Based on an one-mcichirze-irifnite-btis system, CI non-linear mrithematiccil model is estciblished which is proven as an ciflnr nonlinenr system. With the help of the feeclbtick 1ineriri:ation technique, the ctffine non-linear model is e.ractly tninsferred to a linecir moclel, and then the control scheme is designeclfor the TCSC based on the global linearizcition, where the input signeil uses local meeisrirements onlv.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
