Voltage Stability by Injecting Reactive Power using STATCOM for Wind Turbine Squirrel-Cage Induction Generator System during Fault

Abstract

Reactive power limit of the system affects it’s Voltage stability. The wind driven self excited induction generator during faults and heavy loading condition, lacks in supplying reactive power to the system. FACTs devices improve the reactive power flow in the system thereby improving voltage stability. This paper concludes the effect of STATCOM on the voltage stability. voltage stability is improved through the ability of the STATCOM FACTs devices help to increase the load ability margin of the power network.
