Comparative study using soft computing techniques for the reactive power compensation of a hybrid power system model

Abstract Reactive power discrepancy has caused brief disturbance in the Hybrid Power System Model (HPSM), resulting into voltage fluctuation in the system. This fluctuation has impact in the HPSM both for the steady state and the transient stability. The objective of this paper is to compensate this reactive power and find solution to overcome the problems of not being able to maintain a flat voltage profile of a wind-diesel HPSM. Therefore, the study employs a Proportional-Integral-Derivative Controller with Derivative Filter (PIDF) along with a Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) controller. It also proposes an effectiveness of symbiosis organism search algorithm to optimize the various controller parameters of the studied HPSM and compares the results with other reported stochastic and heuristic algorithms.
