Abstract:
Introducing a new concept for improving power quality in the distributed power generation sectors based on an inverter technology using Distribution STATCOM (DSTATCOM) power quality conditioner using the fuzzy logic controller. A five-level inverter is designed with Space Vector Modulation (SVM) and a fuzzy-based controller for the improvement of the power factor. It enhances the stability of the power system. Also, this concept describes various mitigation methodologies for improving power quality. Simulation results and laboratory-validated results are shown to compare the performances.
