Abstract

The Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) is accepted as the versatile Power Flow Controller between electrical power nodes or power sources many times referred to as the buses. Regulation of real and reactive power flow between power nodes can be achieved in the desired manner using the UPFC. In this paper it is demonstrated how additional real power sources like Wind and Photo Voltaic Solar power sources can be augmented into the DC link of the UPFC and supplementing the seamless performance of the UPFC. Fuzzy Logic has been chosen to be the controller as it is moderately robust and its usefulness in this application is compared and contrasted against traditional PI controller. MATLAB / SIMULINK based simulation environment has been used for demonstrating the validity of the proposed schemes.
