Although many operational aspects affect renewable energy source plants operation, this paper focuses on Power Quality and compensation methods adopted in renewable energy source plants as a literature survey. The paper also discussed on distributed generators control strategies and power sharing methods.
">Successful and economical operation of industries is a fundamental object of society. The relevance of Power Quality (PQ) issue has recently augmented because of the increased use of power electronic equipments, which results in a voltage deviation and current waveforms. The performance and life expectancy of industrial electronics and electrical equipments is significantly affected by power supply anomalies caused by "Polluting" loads at an industrial site and by utility normal operational activities. With the level of future demand of electricity remaining unclear, power market players are reluctant to commit to long term capital investment. Distribution and generation using renewable energy resources such as wind and solar energy attract attention. Renewable energy resource plants must provide Power Quality required to ensure stability and reliability of the power system.
