This document summarizes the use of Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS) and High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) transmission to improve power system performance. It describes how FACTS devices like SVCs can enhance transient stability, reduce voltage dips, and provide damping. HVDC transmission is presented as a solution for asynchronous interconnections and controlling power flows independently of AC systems. Simulation results show that adding SVC FACTS devices to an HVDC transmission system improves voltage quality and stability compared to a system without FACTS. In conclusion, coordinated use of HVDC and FACTS can efficiently improve system dynamics under weak conditions.
