Abstract |
It is important to have control over power transfer in interconnected power systems. This can improve stability and allow transmission lines to be loaded closer to their thermal limits than otherwise possible. It can minimize power losses by directing power to flow along its intended path. The objective of this paper is to describe a new power transfer controller called MPTC [1], which has most of the functionality of UPFC and has the potential to be much more cost-effective. This controller is based on a novel combination of proven
technologies and recent advances in semiconductor devices. Application of this controller in improving power quality during voltage sag conditions is also discussed. |
