    Abstract : The increased awareness of the on-going climate change accelerates the electric energy system transformation from fossil-fueled power sources towards systems with larger portions of renewable energy sources. Moreover, the grid infrastructure requires reinforcements to cope with increasing electrical energy demand. READ MORE

  2. 2. On control of cascaded H-bridge converters for STATCOM applications

    Author : Ehsan Behrouzian; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cascaded H-bridge converters; FACTS.; Modular Multilevel Converters MMC ; STATCOM;

    Abstract : Cascaded H-bridge (CHB) converters are today considered the industrial standard for STATCOM applications, mainly due to their small footprint, high achievable voltage levels, modularity and reduced losses. However, there are still areas of research that need to be investigated in order to improve the performance and the operational range of this converter topology for grid-applications. READ MORE

  5. 5. Control of Energy Storage Equipped Shunt-connected Converter for Electric Power System Stability Enhancement

    Author : Mebtu Bihonegn Beza; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; transient stability.; energy storage; recursive least square RLS ; electromechanical oscillation; Signal estimation technique; static synchronous compensator; power oscillation damping POD ;

    Abstract : Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) controllers, both in shunt and series configuration, are widely used in the power system for power flow control, to increase the loading capability of an existing line and to increase the security of the system by enhancing its transient stability. Among the FACTS controllers family, the Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) is a key device for the reinforcement of the stability in an AC power system. READ MORE
