Impact of grid-tied photovoltaic systems on voltage stability of tunisian distribution networks using dynamic reactive power control

2021 
Abstract Analysis of voltage stability of transmission network with high photovoltaic (PV) integration is a challenging problem because of the stochastic generation of a solar system. Stabilization of the output power is an important criterion for determining the degree of penetration of PV in active distribution networks, considering loading capability. This article describes the effective voltage regulation strategy for the transmission system using the STATCOM module to resolve the drop and the effect aspects on the voltage stability in the transmission network. This paper analyzes also the influence of the STATCOM control system on preventing the combination of injection voltage STATCOM with harmonics from achieving pure voltage compensation. The proposed test system under analysis is the 53-Bus Tunisian distribution power network integrating 12 MW solar PV plant. Simulation results are added to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed control technique for enhancing the power system quality based on the Tunisian grid code. Investigation of voltage stability shows that the dynamic behavior of the voltage depends strongly on the short circuit capacity of the power network at the point of PVs integration.
