Review on Coordinated Control Techniques of FACTS Devices in Power System
Keywords:
Coordinated Control, FACTS Devices, InteractionAbstract
This paper presents in-depth review of several literatures in regarding with interaction problems and
various techniques for coordinated control between PSS and FACTS controllers or FACTS to FACTS controllers in
power system environments. It may also be effective in transient stability improvement, power oscillations damping and
balancing power flow in parallel lines. It has been noticed that adverse interactions among multiple FACTS controllers
may occur when they are not properly coordinated with each other and other slowly acting system equipment. This paper
presents an extensive survey on the existing cases, system studies and assessment techniques to help system planners
understand the underlying mechanism of diverse interactions among multiple FACTS controllers and develop
coordinated control schemes for preventing or mitigating any harmful interactions.
