A STATCOM Control Scheme for Power Quality and THD Improvement

A growth of energy is utilizing by the renewable energy resources like wind, biomass, hydro, co-generation etc. In sustainable energy system, energy conservation and the use of renewable source are the main paradigm. The need to integrate the renewable energy like wind energy into power system is to make it possible to minimize the environmental impact on conventional plant. The integration of wind energy into existing power system presents a technical challenges and that requires consideration of voltage regulation, stability, power quality problems. The power quality is an essential customer- focused measure and is greatly affected by the operation of a distribution and transmission network. The issue of power quality is of great importance to the wind turbine
