Power Quality Improvement in Wind Farm Connected to

Grid Using STATCOM

Abstract— In this project wind farm connected to the grid with shunt connected STATCOM is
analyzed. The injection of wind farm to grid will suffer from power quality issues. The proposed
system will give better solution to the power quality issues. The Bang-Bang controller is used to
control scheme for to produce switching signal to IGBT of STATCOM. In the proposed system the
STATCOM is connected to point of common coupling with energy storage system. The control
scheme of STATCOM connected to grid with wind energy generation system is simulated using
MATLAB/SIMULINK.

Now-a-days the distribution system suffer from many power quality issues such as voltage
sag, voltage swell, voltage spikes, voltage fluctuation, harmonics etc., STATCOM (Static Synchronous
Compensator) is also called as Static Synchronous Compensator. STATCOM is shunt connected
reactive power compensation; it is used to generate or absorb the reactive power to the
transmission and distribution line. The STATCOM will provide the reactive power to the line only if
the load is suffer from lack of reactive power at given bus location and vice versa.

Keywords— Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM), Insulated-Gate Bipolar transistor (IGBT),

Voltage Source Converter (VCS), Static Voltage Compensator (SVC).
