  • Abstract
    First of all, the paper introduces great importance and significant advantages of electrified railway for our nation. And then negative effects to the grid´s power quality brought by electrified railway are emphasized, followed by typical solutions such as the dynamic compensation strategy, among which compensator based on STATCOM technology shows the best general performance. Finally, the paper presents a two-phase STATCOM device- Railway Unified Power Quality Controller (RUPQC)´s topology, and its excellent performance is shown and verified through simulation.
