Abstract

This paper substantiate the conventional energy depleting very fast and the power demand increasing every passing day, it has become absolute necessary to focus on renewable energy. Lots and lots of project are being undertaken which are capable to make use of power from the renewable energy resources like, wind, sun, water, etc . The synthesis of these systems (hydro energy, wind energy, solar power etc.) discover different kinds of problems in the grid like system stability problems or power quality issues which needs to be resolved. The most prevailing passive filters were used but at the present time active filters such as Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) and Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) are selecte for the task. Static synchronous comparator is a device that regulates the voltage level or the reactive power in the system. It is predominantly used to maintain voltage stability, enlargement of critical clearing time. Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) is a voltage restorer that can solve the voltage power quality issues. The purpose of this work to integrate the STATCOM and the DVR for voltage control and harmonics filtering. The simulation will be carried in MATLAB/SIMULINK and results will be presented to validate the claim.
