INCORPORATION OF HIERARCHICAL CONTROL WITH FACTS TECHNOLOGIES IN POWER SYSTEMS

摘要

FACTS(Flexible AC Transmission System) technology, a product of development in power electronics, is now providing an opportunity to develop the direction for power system control. It is profitable for this advanced technology to be combined with new control concepts. A novel hierarchical control methodology incorporated with FACTS devices in power systems is proposed in this paper, and possible future research direction are suggested. Issues concerning FACTS performance and applications, hierarchical control concepts, And model and algorithm developments are also addressed herein. This research aims to overcome technical limitations through a Comprehensive and flexible methodology to enhance reliability and Security of large-scale power systems.
