Fast acting static synchronous compensator (STATCOM), a representative of FACTS family,
is a promising technology being extensively used as the state-of-the-art dynamic shunt …

Maintaining a stable level of power quality in the distribution network is a growing challenge
due to increased use of power electronics converters in domestic, commercial and industrial …

In many residential and office buildings, power is distributed through a three-phase, four-
wire (3P4W) systems. The non-linear and unbalanced loads in these systems may result in …

The concept of microgrid hierarchical control is presented recently. In this paper, a
hierarchical scheme is proposed which includes primary and secondary control levels. The …

Recently, there has been an increasing interest in using distributed generators (DGs) not
only to inject power into the grid but also to enhance the power quality. In this paper, a …

Due the intensive use of power converters and other non-linear loads in industry and by
consumers in general, it can be observed an increasing deterioration of the power systems …

This paper introduces a robust adaptive control strategy of shunt active power filters (SAPF)
for power-factor correction, harmonic compensation, and balancing of nonlinear loads. The …

A control scheme for star-connected cascade static synchronous compensators
(STATCOMs) operating under unbalanced conditions is proposed. The STATCOM is …

In this paper, different voltage injection schemes for dynamic voltage restorers (DVRs) are
analyzed with particular focus on a new method used to minimize the rating of the voltage …

Electric springs have been used previously in stabilizing mains voltage fluctuation in power
grid fed by intermittent renewable energy sources. This paper describes a new three-phase …
