Abstract
Power quality becomes the most significant concerns for many reasons as the dependence of electricity is increasing in this modern society. In fact that less quality of power will generate some considerable losses in terms of economy in few moments. The potential power quality issues were flicker, voltage dips, supply and harmonic interruptions. The quality of power might be enhanced with the use of some filtering approaches and some compensators. This work presents a unique framework of optimal utilization of the unified power flow controller (UPFC). The UPFC’s inverter series is then controlled so as to perform the following functions: load reactive power sharing with the shunt inverter and compensation of voltage sag/swell. A cuckoo search optimization-based maximum power point tracking algorithm is employed for providing best fitness function for varying duty cycles. The approach of active power filter is widely employed in the harmonic compensation of voltage swell/sag. The proposed system also provides low rate of total harmonic distortion. MATLAB/Simulink-based simulation results are discussed to support the developed concept.
