Fuzzy logic controller for power balance theory based STATCOM for grid connected wind turbine system Gundala Muni Reddy, T Gowri Manohar Indonesian Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, 2018 <p>The use of renewable power sources, like wind power, has been increased recently due to climatic changes caused by fossil fuels and fast depletion of fossil fuels. This has lead to the tremendous increase in the interconnection of wind turbines to power system grid. This interconnection on a large number in to grid causes problems such as power quality, maintaining system voltage, reactive power compensation, control of grid frequency and aspects of power system grid stability. In this proposed scheme, a fuzzy logic based controller is employed for a STATCOM to improve the power quality. The proposed control scheme supplies the required reactive power to the system and thus relieves the source, leading to Unity Power Factor (UPF) at the source and also it injects currents to reduce total harmonic distortion (THD) to satisfy IEC standard.

Fuzzy logic controller for grid connected wind energy conversion system G. Muni Reddy, T. Gowri Manohar Indonesian Journal of Electrical Engineering and Informatics, 2018 The use of renewable power sources, like wind power, has been increased recently due to climatic changes caused by fossil fuels and fast depletion of fossil fuels.

The proposed control scheme supplies the required reactive power to the system and thus relieves the source, leading to Unity Power Factor (UPF) at the source and also it injects currents to reduce total harmonic distortion (THD) to satisfy IEC standard. For extracting the reference currents, an instantaneous reactive power theory based control algorithm is employed. To determine the effectiveness of the proposed fuzzy logic controller, a comparative analysis is also performed with a PI controller and the results have been presented.

Fuzzy controller based multi level inverter STATCOM for grid connected wind energy conversion system G. Muni Reddy, T. Gowrimanohar International Conference on Signal Processing Communication Power and Embedded System Scopes 2016 Proceedings, 2017 The sustainable energy resources, like wind energy, for electrical energy generation is augmented due to environmental problems and the scarcity of conventional energy sources, leading to integration of large number of wind generators in to grid. Integration of large scale of wind generators in to grid presents challenges such as voltage stability, reactive power management, frequency control, grid stability and power quality. In this proposed scheme, Multi Level Inverter based Static Compensator with a battery energy storage system employs fuzzy based Controller to diminish the effects of power quality issues. The proposed scheme for the grid connected wind energy conversion system is simulated using MATLAB/SIMULINK The efficacy of the proposed control scheme is, it takes care of the reactive power requirement of the load and the induction generator, thus improving the source side power factor and also there will be a discernible reduction in the Total Harmonic Distortion. Using Multi Level inverter based STATCOM, lower source current distortions shall be obtained, when compared to conventional two level inverter based STATCOM Further the use of fuzzy controller for the proposed system shall reduce source current distortions.
