INTRODUCTION
1.1 INTRODUCTION
Electric power system encounters serious issues in power quality
due to dramatic changes in loads. The demand for electric power is varied
both randomly and with predictable variations due to the functioning of industrial
society. It is a very big challenge for an electrical engineer to operate the
power system in a controlled manner. With advanced semiconductor
technology, FACTS devices are used for controlling the real power flow in a
transmission line in a rapid manner through power circulation within the
converter. Many power plants are operating most efficiently near their
maximum power output. An energy storage system is implemented to
maintain reliable operation and also without power circulation.
