“…A new improved artificial bee colony (IABC) algorithm is developed in Reference 119 to find the optimal parameters of PI controllers for PCC voltage outer‐loop control of STATCOMs. Kamel et al 120 discussed a hybrid optimization technique based on ant‐colony optimization and PSO. This heuristic‐based approach for PI‐STATCOM shows satisfactory performance for grid code compliance of the WT undergoing balanced and unbalanced faults.…”

In recent years, the development of renewable energy sources (RESs) and their integration with the conventional power network have increased significantly. Due to the power grid transformation brought about by the large penetration of power electronics converter‐based RESs such as wind and solar photovoltaic (PV), the operation and control of the interconnected power system has become a challenging task with respect to sustaining its stability and reliability. Power systems are confronted by several new stability issues because the dynamic behavior of converter‐interfaced renewable sources differs from conventional generation. In this respect, static synchronous compensator (STATCOM), a shunt connected flexible AC transmission system (FACTS), is recognized as a fundamental solution for maintaining power system stability. This paper presents a thorough and state‐of‐the‐art review of STATCOM control in wind‐ and/or PV‐interfaced power systems for enhancing system performance by addressing key stability issues related to rotor angle stability, voltage stability, and resonance stability. A comprehensive analysis of various control techniques of STATCOM based on conventional, adaptive, nonlinear, predictive, robust, and coordinated control and soft computing techniques is provided. Furthermore, the function of the grid‐side converter of the wind/PV plant as a STATCOM is also evaluated. Finally, the shortcomings of existing research are highlighted, current control challenges are presented, and several topics for future research are suggested. This paper provides researchers the opportunity to consider the current state of research and develop new control schemes for STATCOM to further improve the stability of modern power grids.

“…This challenge paves the way for modern optimization methods to tune the PI controller parameters for reaching systems optimal operating performance. The use of PI controllers for improving the connection of STATCOM to the grid was presented in [26][27][28]. Genetic algorithm (GA), presented in [29], is considered a benchmark for optimal tuning of PI controller gains.…”

Connecting different renewable energy sources (RESs) to the electrical grids is presently being urged to fulfill the enormous need for electric power and to decrease traditional sources' ecological related issues, the so-called hybrid systems. Unfortunately, these hybrid systems suffer from the possible negative environmental impacts of the wind gusts in wind energy conversion systems (WECSs) that may degrade the overall system performance. Additionally, various severe faults may disconnect some RESs from the hybrid system, like three-phase faults. In this paper, the static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) is considered for both improving the performance of a hybrid system, contains WECS and photovoltaics (PVs) against wind gusts and maintaining the continuous operations of RESs during three-phase fault occur at the point of common coupling (PCC) between the RESs and the grid. The STATCOM is stimulated by two PI controllers regulating the reactive power flow between the STATCOM and the hybrid system at PCC and, consequently, regulating the voltage at PCC. A metaheuristic optimizer optimally schedules these two PI controllers based on whale optimization algorithm

“…Reference [16] uses genetic algorithm to determine the parameters of PI controller in the research of static var compensator and automatic voltage regulator control system, so that the designed controller has strong robustness. [17] proposed an ant colony algorithm optimization method in order to improve the dynamic performance of STATCOM. The ant colony algorithm finetunes the coefficients of the PI controller to realize the optimal dynamic management of STATCOM.…”

The distribution static synchronous compensator (D-STATCOM) has the characteristics of non-linearity, multivariable and strong coupling. Based on the analysis of the D-STATCOM mathematical model, in order to improve the performance of the linear active disturbance rejection controller (LADRC), solve the coupling problem between the d-axis and q-axis current and improve the dynamic tracking response speed and anti-interference ability. A controller with LADRC that compensates the error of the total disturbance is proposed, and the stability of the improved first-order LADRC is proved by the Lyapunov stability theory. Then the output of the full interference channel is corrected to improve the antiinterference ability of the system and the interference observation ability of the linear extended state observer (LESO) to high-frequency noise. Through the analysis of the Bode diagram in the frequency domain, compared with the traditional LADRC, the improved LADRC proposed in this paper has better anti-interference performance. Finally, the improved first-order LADRC is used to replace the traditional D-STATCOM control strategy for current inner loop control, which effectively reduces the disturbance observation error of LESO. The experimental results show that the improved LADRC control performance is better than the proportional integral (PI) controller, and it has better tracking performance and antiinterference performance.
