Abstract

Improving the quality of energy in distributed generation is a rapidly growing, challenging, and interesting area of modern times. In recent decades, a large number of techniques have been developed to improve energy quality. This article attempts to comprehensively examine a wide range of methods for improving power quality in distributed generation. This includes the use of active filters, Dynamic Voltage Restorer, DSTATCOM, reactive power compensation techniques, and an unmodified power quality conditioner. In this test, all of these methods are examined with power quality parameters such as reverse power flow, voltage stability, and current harmonics. This document describes energy quality problems and possible effects on the distribution system due to a grid-connected photovoltaic system.

Highlights

  • Energy quality is an important element of the smooth functioning of consumers

  • It is known that when installing distributed generation sources, power quality problems such as reverse current flow, voltage instability, and voltage or current harmonics are inevitable

  • To improve the voltage quality, the Dynamic Voltage Restorer was used as an effective device to protect voltage sensitive loads from voltage instability

Summary

INTRODUCTION

Energy quality is an important element of the smooth functioning of consumers. In recent times, environmental influences and growing energy needs have led the electricity grid to evolve towards decentralized production. It is known that when installing distributed generation sources, power quality problems such as reverse current flow, voltage instability, and voltage or current harmonics are inevitable. In [1], an inverter is used to feed the grid with the PV interface with active power. The production of photovoltaic energy is more dependent on weather conditions and is an interruption that affects the grid and cannot be ignored. The author attempted to mitigate the effect of solar generation on the low voltage grid through the inverter's VAR control strategy. Many people have had different ideas for solving the power quality problems associated with distributed generation. None of the previous articles related to distributed generation have addressed the problem of reverse energy flow in the LV power grid
