Description

Abstract: This work presents optimizing the power flow stability of 330KV transmission system using Static Var Compensator (SVC).  The aim is to ensure stability, control and regulation of power flow during times of nonlinearity arising as a result of fault conditions which induces excess reactive and active power within the system. This problem was formulated using Newton Raphson load flow analysis to identify the weak busses. Static Var Compensator (SVC) was developed and used to improve the poor buses identified from the study and then implemented with Simulink. The result showed that the SVC was able to improve the bus performance to achieve voltage profile of 0.95 – 1.05p. The SVC was integrated on the Nigerian 330KV transmission lines and evaluated. The result showed that the characterized bus with poor voltage profile was corrected.

Keywords: Power Stability, Transmission Lines, Static Var Compensator, Control, Regulation, fault, load flow studies.
