Abstract

This paper deals with the design of optimum static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) controllers (i.e. AC voltage regulator, DC voltage regulator and damping controller) using genetic and evolutionary algorithm (GEA). The controllers are designed with and without considering battery energy storage system (BESS). Investigations reveal that the dynamic performance of the system improves significantly with the incorporation of STATCOM damping controllers. Studies also show that incorporation of BESS further improves the damping of the system oscillations.
