Abstract

Large photovoltaic power generation facilities are expected to be installed in desert areas and provide electricity to rural areas through long cable transmission lines. However, ac transmission networks in such areas are usually inadequate for stable grid operation. One problem to be solved is voltage instability when large photovoltaic power generation facilities are connected to weak power grids. In this paper, two solutions for PV operation are proposed. One is use of the SVC and the other is that of the reactor. By conducting computer simulations on a test system, the proposed solutions are shown to improve ac voltage stability and to be feasible for the PV operation in desert areas.
