Abstract

Growth of complex electrical power networks introduces lack of controllability of active and reactive power flow in energies networks Power flow control in an existing long transmission line, plays an important role in power system area. This paper employs the shunt connected compensation STATCOM based FACTS devices for the control of voltage and the power flow in long distance transmission line. The proposed device is used in different locations of transmission line and also deals with determination of the optimal location of shunt flexible A.C. transmission line (FACTS) devices for a long transmission line for voltage and power transfer improvement. The results also show the line loading and system initial operating conditions. In this paper the two machine 4-bus test system is simulated using MATLAB Simulink environment.
