Cost Allocation of Reactive Power Using Matrix Methodology in Transmission Network

Abstract

<span>In the deregulated market environment as generation, transmission and distribution are separate entities; reactive power flow in transmission lines is a question of great importance. Due to inductive load characteristic, reactive power is inherently flowing in transmission line. Hence under restructured market this reactive power allocation is necessary. In this work authors presents a power flow tracing based allocation method for reactive power to loads. MVAr-mile method is used for allocation of reactive power cost. A sample 6 bus and IEEE 14 bus system is used for showing the feasibility of developed method.</span>

Power quality improvement using fuzzy logic controller based unified power flow controller

“…The FACTs can mitigate electrical power problems in different conditions (steady-state, transient, and post transient steady-state) [1][2][3][4]. It can be classified into four types, the first type is shunt controllers such as static synchronous compensator (STATCOM), the second type is series controllers, for example, static synchronous series compensator (SSSC), the third type is a combination between the series and shunt controllers such as unified power flow controller (UPFC) and the final type is a combination between two series controllers such as interline power controller (IPFC) [5][6][7][8][9].…”
