A Review on Different Topologies and Control Method of Static Synchronous Compensator IJTSRD



Rapidly acting static synchronous compensator STATCOM , a member of FACTS devices, is a capable technology being widely used as the state-of-the-art dynamic shunt compensator for reactive power control in transmission and distribution system. In the last 25 years, technocrats have made extensive research on STATCOM technology due to which, many STATCOM controllers based on the self-commutating solid-state voltage-source converter VSC have been developed and commercially put in operation to control system dynamics under stressed conditions. Because of its many attributes, STATCOM has emerged as a qualitatively superior controller relative to the line commutating static VAR compensator SVC . This controller is called with different terminologies as Static Compensator advanced static VAR compensator, advanced static VAR generator or static VAR generator, Static Condenser, synchronous solid-state VAR compensator, VSC-based SVC or self-commutated SVC or static synchronous compensator SSC or S2C . The development of STATCOM controller employing various solid-state converter topologies, magnetic configurations, control algorithms, switching techniques and so on, has been well reported in literature with its versatile applications in power system. A review on the state-of-the-art STATCOM technology and further research potential are presented.
