“…In [7] a unique planning technique was developed to reduce total operating cost and active power loss by optimizing the placement of FACTS devices to adjust for the VARs flowing across the line. The authors of [8] emphasized the necessity of FACTS devices in dealing with difficulties of renewable energy penetration into existing systems. Power engineers are familiar with optimization as a solution.…”
The need to meet changing demand in an economical manner while making the best use of already-expensive electrical systems led to inescapable problems with overloading, increased power transfer coupled with extremely high system loss, and unstable voltage profiles that ultimately resulted in an unreliable system. Power distribution is impacted by the remarkable changes that are currently taking place in the use and provision of energy services. Numerous new avenues for the provision and use of electrical energy have been opened up as a result of developed and diverse distributed technologies, including distributed electricity generation. The emergence of powerful and affordable software has enabled us to cope with the fast-paced development in the power industry which requires updating resources with modern technologies to manage substations. The goal of the proposed work is to integrate solar photovoltaic and optimize the power flow, voltage profile, and real power loss through the building of a simulation model on Mi Power. Power flow analysis was used to calculate the actual power loss, which was then minimized through SPV placement. Additionally, the impact of PV penetration on single bus loading was assessed for all load buses operating in succession with either active, reactive, or combined active and reactive loads.

“…Active power filters were developed to overcome passive filters drawbacks, APFs can reduce harmonics, compensate and improve power factor, compensate unbalances and flicker and regulate voltage. APFs have been used as PQI devices with different topologies and control strategies , [57][58][59][60][61][62]. There is some detailed comparison between various APFs and the applications of each one, while most of the comparisons are from topology aspect [26,27,29].…”
-It is obvious that power quality is an important characteristic of today's distribution power systems as loadsbecome more sensitive on the other hand nonlinear loads are increasing in the electrical distribution system. Considering the distributed nature of harmonic loads, the need for distributed power quality improvement (PQI) is inevitable. From years ago, researchers have been working on various kinds of filters and devices to enhance the overall power quality of power system, but today the nature of distribution system has been changed and power electronic based DGs play an important role in distribution grids. In this paper, a thorough survey is done on power quality enhancement devices with emphasis on ancillary services of multi-functional DGs. A literature review is also done on microgrids concept, testbeds and related control methods. Although there were some applications of DGs for PQI improvement these applications were not defined multi-functional DGs. Various control methods are studied and categorized regarding different viewpoints in the literature. Finally, a couple of thorough comparisons are done between the available techniques considering the nature, capabilities, advantages and implementation costs.
“…The article [7] , centers on the use of a Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) as a solution to improve power quality in wind energy conversion systems connected to microgrids. The paper suggests a control strategy that utilizes a fuzzy logic controller to regulate the STATCOM and minimize voltage fluctuations while enhancing power quality within the microgrid.…”
