Synthesis integrating wind generation and FACTS of network

Integration of wind turbines may have significant impacts on power system operation. Generation of electricity from wind power has received considerable attention. This paper analyzes the impact of integrating wind generation and FACTS on the voltage collapse and active losses of network IEEE 30 bus test. Therefore, we must choose among FACTS devices, those with specific applications such as maintaining the voltage at the desired value and the control of power flow, SVC is the most effective in the compensation of reactive as well as maintaining the voltage, and TCSC is the best choice for a proper control of power flow and consequently the reduction of active losses. The simulation results show clearly the effect of wind power plants and FACTS on the grid, voltage stability and power quality of electric power system.
