Abstract

Due to power system oscillations induced by complex interconnections, power system stability has been a major concern and will continue to be a major concern in power system operations. For improving power system stability, efforts have been directed toward damping power system oscillations. The small signal stability is the instability that has been influenced by complex interconnections. Small signal stability can be dampened with power system stabilisers (PSS). PSS, on the other hand, have certain disadvantages, such as significant variations in voltage profiles and the potential for leading power factor operations, which may reduce system stability in the face of severe disturbances. In wide multi machine power systems, using only traditional PSS can not be enough to dampen inter-area oscillations and the effect of voltage profile variation. Power electronic devices known as Flexible Alternating Current Transmission System (FACTS) devices, on the other hand, are good at damping inter-area oscillations and can handle voltage variations. As a result, based on computational intelligence techniques, this paper provides a thorough analysis and evaluation of PSS and FACTS power oscillation damping (POD) controllers in reducing low frequency oscillations. The importance of technical paper publications on PSS and FACTS-based controller design, optimum location, and parameter tuning is highlighted. Finally, the potential future research directions for novel PSS and FACTS devices is proposed as a reference for interested researchers.
