Electricity generation from wind and solar PV systems are highly dependent upon weather situations.
Solar PV and wind systems generates two distinctive fluctuating powers. To achieve constantpower
both of them should be stabilized separately. So, a control action is needed. Hence, it is a need for
rapid compensation of energy for power transmission and distribution systems. Hence, compensation
using STATCOM (Static Synchronous Compensator) is employed for reactive power compensation, to
control voltage fluctuations in power generation and to attain a stable operation. STATCOM is
provided with 4 PI controllers based on Genetic algorithm. In this model we're using 2MW wind
turbine model based on DFIG, 0.4MW solar PV energy system model and a STATCOM rated at
3MVAR. While as compared with conventional controllers, when conventional PI controllers based on
GA is used, a higher stability is obtained and voltage fluctuations at the end of busbar are decreased
with the aid of 8%.
