International Journal of Emerging Electric Power Systems, 2021
AbstractRenewable energy growing is considered one of the main sources of the system harmonics. Thus, in this paper, Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) is reduced by using flexible AC transmission systems (FACTs). Static Compensator (STATCOM) and Static Synchronous Series Compensator (SSSC) are used and compared against basic harmonics filter.

A flexible ac transmission system (FACTS) for balancing arc furnace loads
Electric Power Systems Research, 1997Abstract A flexible AC transmission system (FACTS) is a proposed new technique for balancing unbalanced three phase arc furnace loads. Although reactances of conductors can be balanced by traditional methods, the method proposed here is a unique method for balancing inevitably unbalanced arc resistances.
