Abstract The Smart Grid environment gives more benefits for the consumers, whereas the power quality is one of the challenging factors in the smart grid environment. To protect the system equipment and increase the reliability, different filter technologies are used. Even though, consumers’ expectations towards the power quality are not fulfilled. To overcome these drawbacks and enhance the system reliability, a new Custom Power Devices (CPD) are introduced in the system. Among different CPDs, the Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) is one of the voltage compensating devices that is used to improve the power quality during distortions. When the distortions such as voltage swell and sag occur in the distribution system, the control strategy in the DVR plays a significant role. In this article, the DVR performance using Proportional Integral (PI), Proportional Resonant (PR) controllers are analyzed. A robust optimization algorithm called Self Balanced Differential Evolution (SBDE) is used to find the optimal gain values of the controllers in order to reach the target of global minimum error and obtain fast response. Then, a comparative analysis is performed between different controllers and verified that the performance of PR controller is superior than the other controllers. It has been found that the proposed PR controller strategy reduces the Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) values for all types of faults. The proposed SBDE optimized DVR with PR controller reduces the THD value less than 4% under voltage distoration condition. The DVR topology is validated in MATLAB/SIMULINK in order to detect the disturbance and inject the voltage to compensate the load voltage.

Like any human activity, all energy sources have an impact on our environment. Renewable and Non-Renewable energy is no exception to the rule, and each source has its own trade-offs. However it can’t replaced with a non-renewable energy after utilizing it. And when this non-renewable resource and its byproducts are used it also causes damage to the environment by emitting harmful gases like nitrous oxide, sulfur dioxide and greenhouse gases. So instead of depleting precious resources and polluting the environment we can go for renewable energy sources which are harmless and sustainable source of energy. So our project is mainly intended to optimize the power system in means of proper siting and sizing methodology using renewable energy resources. This is necessary to reduce the ever increasing load demand, reactive power demand and to safeguard the power system from unnecessary issues. This also benefits in reduction of cost in the consumer electric bills. Basically we have two parts in this project, First part of the project is proper sizing, where we locate the area (busbar) which has low voltage profile while comparing to all other sections of the system. In this process we use Newton Raphson method for power flow analysis of the system to locate the weak bus. Second part of our project is to optimize the system. That is, we need to integrate a proper generator to compensate the load demand so that the system becomes stable. For compensation we are using a “Hybrid Renewable Energy Source” which is a combination of solar and wind energy. Thus the system we considered would be stable so that it would be free from all the issues as we mentioned above. As we are using renewable energy, the system would be more efficient and sustainable than the conventional energy which we are dependent on.

In today's electric power industry, accurate and flexible information is needed to provide nondiscriminatory access to all market participants. This paper primarily calculates the available transfer capability (ATC) based on fuzzy set theory for Repeated Power flow(RPF),there by capturing uncertainty. Assuming that uncertainty involved are estimated, a fuzzy model is formulated in which uncertainty parameters affecting the ATC are regarded as fuzzy variables. The purpose of this paper is to calculate ATC using Continuation Power Flow (CPF) and then compare the result with the Repeated Power Flow (RPF).To investigate into the potentials of fuzzy logic and the way it can be applied for ATC determination. To identify the most suitable one from among the widely used fuzzy models for ATC determination. To develop a novel method that would adopt fuzzy logic for determining ATC involving minimum number of input variables in a large power system is fuzzy for repeated power flow (FRPF) algorithm that can handle uncertainties in load parameters and bus injections as well.. As such the solution will assist in providing additional information on the actual ability of the network to a system operator. The viability of the proposed method would be verified with the one obtained from the Repeated power flow (RPF) in the IEEE-24 RTS bus system.
