2. BACKGROUNDBACKGROUND
The term, Flexible AC Transmission Systems “FACTS” covers
several power electronics based systems used for AC power
transmission and distribution.
Important applications in power transmission and distribution
involve devices such as SVC, SC as well as TCSC and STATCOM.
Static VAR Compensation (STATCOM) is one of the advance
power systems known as FACTS controllers, which provides
fast and continuous capacitive and inductive reactive power
supply to the power system.
Maintain or improve voltage stability, grid reliability and
reduce overall power losses.
3. EXECUTIVE SUMMARYEXECUTIVE SUMMARY
In this paper we studied the shunt operation of FACTS
controller. FACTS devices are mainly use for solving various
power system steady state control problems such as voltage
regulation, power flow control, and transfer capability
enhancement. FACTS device allows transmission systems to be
more efficiently. STATCOM is a shunt FACTS device which can
be used to regulate the flow of reactive power in the system
independent of other system parameters. The study of
STATCOM including phase angle control are carried out.
STATCOM has no long term energy support on the dc side and it
cannot exchange real power with the ac system. In the
transmission systems, STATCOM primarily handle only
fundamental reactive power exchange and provide voltage
support. STATCOM Operating, maintenance and investment
cost are lower than others.
4. METHODOLOGYMETHODOLOGY

books, researches and manuals.

current. Q=EI(EI-ET)/X

F=VP-VSP=0
The control of the STATCOM voltage magnitude should be
such that the specified bus voltage and the STATCOM
voltage should be equivalent and there should be no
difference between them.
Vsp is the specified voltage for the bus.

STATCOM has no inertia.
Better dynamics response.
Lower investment cost.
Lower operating and maintenance cost.

Here we observed that when MVA rating is 15 MVA then the total voltage
deviation is minimum which is 0.4171. After that the total voltage deviation
of load bus is increased rapidly.

In the above results we observed that STATCOM at bus 4 is better than 2 and
5. Because voltage deviation is minimum and MVA is good. Although MVA of
bus 2 and 4 are same but total voltage deviation of bus 4 is smaller than
total voltage deviation of bus 2 . Which is expected for us.
20. DISCUSSIONDISCUSSION
With the history of more than three decades and widespread
research and development about FACTS devices, we can say :
From an economical point of view: FACTS devices help to
distribute the electrical energy more economically through better
utilization of existing installation there by reducing the need for
additional transmission lines. Financial benefit from FACTS devices
comes to increased transmission capability. More power can be
transmitted over existing or new transmission grids at a lower
price.
From an environmental point of view: The construction of new
transmission line has negative impact on the environment.
STATCOM enables the transmission of power over vast distances
with less impact on our environment. Furthermore, the saving in
transmission losses may well bring a corresponding decrease in
need for generation, with less toll on the environment.
21. CONCLUSIONCONCLUSION
The result shown above by modeling the system in MATLAB and
simulating their result shows that by MATLAB simulation studies.
Thus the proposed controller shows better performance the
power system oscillations. STATCOM provides the most reliable
and efficient solution. If we install STATCOM to our existing
transmission line, we can minimize huge amount of transmission
loss and add extra KV in our national grid that can fill our
shortage of demand and Improved power transmission
capability in Bangladesh. These calls for the right solutions as far
as power transmission facilities.
