    DISTRIBUTED GENERATION: WHAT IS IT?

    Distributed Resources (DR) are small (usually under 10 MW),

    modular electric generation and storage technologies that

    provide electric capacity and/or energy when and where

    needed. DR may either be interconnected with the electric grid

    or isolated from the grid in "stand-alone" applications, but itslocational value is important to its economics and operation.

    FACTS - APPLICATIONS AND IMPLEMENTATIONS

  • 8/14/2019 Presentation - Power Electronics Arrangements in Distributed Systems

    10/50

    A transmission system can carry power up to its thermal loading limits. But ipractice the system has the following constraints:

    -Transmission stability limits

    -Voltage limits

    Transmission stability limits: limits of transmittable power with which

    transmission system can ride through major faults in the system with its powe

    transmission capability intact.

    Voltage limits: limits of power transmission where the system voltage can b

    kept within permitted deviations from nominal. Voltage is governed b

    reactive power (Q). Q in its turn depends of the physical length of thtransmission circuit as well as from the flow of active power. The longer th

    line and/or the heavier the flow of active power, the stronger will be the flow o

    reactive power, as a consequence of which the voltage will drop, until, at som

    critical level, the voltage collapses altogether.

    FACTS - THE CONCEPT

  • 8/14/2019 Presentation - Power Electronics Arrangements in Distributed Systems

    11/50

    FACTS offers ways of attaining an increase of power transmission capacity at

    optimum conditions, i.e. at maximum availability, minimum transmission

    losses, and minimum environmental impact. Plus, of course, at minimuminvestment cost and time expenditure.

    The term FACTS covers several power electronics based systems used for

    AC power transmission. Given the nature of power electronics equipment,

    FACTS solutions will be particularly justifiable in applications requiring one

    or more of the following qualities:

    -Rapid dynamic response

    -Ability for frequent variations in output

    -Smoothly adjustable output.

    CONTROLLABLE PARAMETERS

    Control of the line impedance X : thyristor-controlled series capacitor

    Provides a powerful means of current control

    When the angle is not large, substantially provides the control of active power

    Control of angle: phase angle regulator

    Provides a powerful means of current control Provides active power flow when the angle is not large

    Series voltage injection: perpendicular to current

    Controls the magnitude of current

    Injects reactive power: static synchronous series compensation Provide a powerful means of controlling the active power

    Parallel voltage injection: arbitrary phase

    Controls the magnitude and the phase of the current.

    Provides a powerful means of controlling the active and reactive power flow. Requires injection of both active and reactive power in series.

    Line voltage regulation: thyristor-controlled voltage regulator

    Very cost-effective means for reactive power flow control

    X control (series C) + voltage regulation (shunt C) can also provide a cost-

    effective means to control both the active and reactive power flow.

    P&Q

    Changes in X will increase or decrease real power flow for a fixed angle or

    change angle for a fixed power flow. Alternatively, the reactive power flow

    will change with the change of X. Adjustments on the bus voltage have

    little impact on the real power flow.

    Series vs. Parallel:

    Series is more powerful in controlling the current/power flow anddamp oscillations

    Parallel is more effective in voltage control and damping of voltageoscillations

    FACTS - POSSIBLE BENEFITS

  • 8/14/2019 Presentation - Power Electronics Arrangements in Distributed Systems

    48/50

    Control of power flow. Increase the loading capability of lines to their

    thermal capabilities.

    Increase the system security through raising the transient stability limit,

    damping electromechanical oscillations of power systems and machines.

    Provide greater flexibility in siting new generation.

    Reduce reactive power flows, thus allowing the lines to carry more active

    power.

    CONCLUSIONS

  • 8/14/2019 Presentation - Power Electronics Arrangements in Distributed Systems

    49/50

    Power supply industry is undergoing dramatic change as a result of

    deregulation and political and economical maneuvers. This new marketenvironment puts demands for flexibility and power quality into focus. This

    calls for the right solutions as far as power transmission facilities between

    countries as well as between regions within countries are concerned.

    The choice of FACTS device is simple and needs to be made the subject of

    detailed system studies, taking all relevant requirements and prerequisites of

    the system into consideration, so as to arrive at the optimum technical andeconomical solution. In fact, the best solution may often be lying in a

    combination of devices.
