dc.description.abstract |
LV consumers are encouraged to invest on roof top solar and wind turbines to reduce the
stress on the utility side. Due to the intermittent nature of these distributed generators the
stability of the power system and the power quality has become the major concerns for
the utility companies to control. Electric Spring is a modern power quality improvement
device which is able to support and regulate voltage events caused mainly due to
distributed generators such as wind and solar to the LV feeders without the need of
restrictions and control by the modern utility providers.
A detailed literature content is presented to give a brief understanding of the applications
of electric springs and comparison with other similar devices available at present market.
The study was performed in MATLAB/Simulink platform for feasibility of a developed
customized electric spring tested for an LV network consumer considering its future load
expansions. The study was tested for voltage disturbances such as voltage fluctuations
and for voltage sags and swells. A detailed comparative simulation was performed mainly
for voltage management in LV consumers for this study. The behaviour of the system was
found to be more rewarding with many electric spring arrangements rather having a single
electric spring. |
