“…SSTs can enhance reactive power compensation along with further reducing its power loss and cost [83]. In [84], SST based on a doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) topology has been proposed for reactive power compensation, eliminating reactive power compensator devices. In [85], system utilizing SST in the wind energy system is presented.…”

Solid-state transformers (SSTs) have emerged as a superior alternative to conventional transformers and are regarded as the building block of the future smart grid. They incorporate power electronics circuitry and high-frequency operation, which allows high controllability and enables bi-directional power flow, overcoming the limitations of conventional transformers. This paper presents a detailed analysis of the solid-state transformer, expounding the fundamentals, converter topologies, applications, and future challenges of the SST in a systematic manner. The paper discusses the necessity of improved replacement of the low-frequency transformers (LFTs) and presents the configuration of SST. It presents SST fundamentals in individual stages and explores its origin and evolution. The basic topologies, their specifications, and control strategies are also described. The applications of SST as a replacement of LFTs are discussed along with recent applications. The future challenges for real-time implementation of SSTs are explored, and research directions are proposed.

“…The authors in [18] explored the possibility of decoupling the speed control machine from the grid frequency, in the case of a variable speed synchronous compensator based on wound rotor induction machine. The methods and results of more recent papers [19][20][21][22][23] are compared with those obtained in this article in the Section 4.3.…”

“…The authors in [20] presented a configuration that combines a wind turbine based on a DFIG and the operation of a Solid State Transformer (SST), aiming at improving power quality by compensating reactive power, reducing harmonics and consequently improving the power factor. This is an interesting work because it uses a hysteresis current control without using PLL, also eliminating the need for a STACOM in (WECS) to meet grid codes.…”

Currently, power quality is a major issue for all sorts of customers. End users of the electricity service in industrial, commercial and residential sectors have nonlinear loads or loads that are sensitive to disturbances in the electric power supply. In this context, this paper presents a study on four different control strategies for the application of synchronous compensator based on a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG). The mathematical modeling developed to support the proposal of this article is validated through computational simulations and experimental results. This work contains strong arguments that support the idea that the proposed synchronous compensator can be employed to cancel oscillations caused by imbalances in the grid, and can furthermore inject or absorb reactive and active power without the characteristic oscillations that arise when negative sequence components are present in the system.
