Utility Application of Static Var Compensation

Proceedings of the 1987 IEEE Southern Tier Technical Conference, 1987., 2005
The Marcy South Project, 200 miles of 345KV (kilovolts) transmission lines, is-being constructed to permit the cost-effective north-south transfer of low cost hydro-produced power from Canada, downstate to New York City by 1988. This project has involved new and interesting technology in its design and construction.

Refurbishment of the static VAr compensator at Laurentides

2003 IEEE Power Engineering Society General Meeting (IEEE Cat. No.03CH37491), 2004
This paper provides a case study of the refurbishment of a 1978 SVC at Laurentides. A historical overview of the operating experience is provided with an evaluation of the state of the equipment prior to refurbishing. A full description of the justification to extend life at a minimum cost is given. Finally, a retrospective of the key technical aspects

Hexagram converter for static VAR compensation

2008 IEEE/PES Transmission and Distribution Conference and Exposition, 2008
A new multilevel converter - Hexagram converter is proposed for static VAR compensation in high-voltage high- power applications. The new converter is composed of six three- phase two-level standard voltage source converter (VSC) modules interconnected through inductors.

Laboratory realization of a Static VAr compensator

2013 International Conference-Workshop Compatibility And Power Electronics, 2013
In a low voltage distribution network, wisely applied local reactive power generation can improve voltage profiles and reduce loses related with the energy transmission. This paper deals with the laboratory realization of a Static VAr compensator (STATCOM) suitable for adjustable local reactive power generation. In the case study, the basic design of a

Nonlinear control for static VAR compensator

Proceedings of TENCON '93. IEEE Region 10 International Conference on Computers, Communications and Automation, 2002
A nonlinear control design approach based on differential geometric control theory is presented briefly. It is taken the nonlinearity of a power system with static VAR compensator (SVC) into account by the mathematical model of the system for the SVC controller design.

A novel concept for static VAR compensators

2013 IEEE 8th International Conference on Industrial and Information Systems, 2013
A new configuration to replace the Thyristor Controlled Reactor (TCR) of a Static VAR Compensator (SVC) by a DC link voltage controlled inductor is proposed in this paper. In this proposed technique, the reactor current contribution is regulated by controlling the peak current through the reactor which conducts for a complete cycle. This is in-contrast

Vector Analysis and Control of Advanced Static VAR Compensators

IEE Proceedings C: Generation Transmission and Distribution, 1993
The Advanced Static VAR Compensator (ASVC) is based on the principle that a self-commutating static inverter can be connected between three-phase ac power lines and an energy-storage device, such as an inductor or capacitor, and controlled to draw ...

Static VAr compensation system for industries

Power Quality '98, 2002
Industrial power supply networks today are polluted by various loads connected to them and their method of control. Consumers are required to meet the stringent requirements imposed by electric utility authorities at the supply network. Hence, it is very much essential for industrial plants to have a static VAr compensator (SVC) for both reactive volt ...

Equivalent Circuit for Frequency Response of a Static Var Compensator

IEEE Transactions on Power Systems, 1986
A model at harmonic frequencies is developed for a static VAR compensator. The model consists of a harmonic voltage source in series with a variable source admittance. The model is shown to be useful in predicting resonance problems using digital simulation.
