The interline power flow controller (IPFC) is one of the most versatile integrated flexible alternating current transmission systems (FACTS) controllers and can realize power flow control for multiple transmission lines in modern power systems. However, control characteristics are ignored in conventional IPFC models, in which unreasonable assumptio...

The High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) transmission technology employing modular multilevel converters (MMCs) can effectively enhance the transmission efficiency and stability of offshore wind farms, thereby aiding the promotion of large−scale utilization of new energy. This holds significant importance for achieving the dual carbon goals. Aiming at the problem of negative sequence current circulation in MMC−HVDC transmission systems, a circulation suppression strategy based on augmented order decoupling linear active disturbance rejection control (LADRC) is proposed in this paper. By introducing new state variables into the traditional ADRC structure, the actual output deviation signal and observation gain signal from the disturbance observation value of the system are used. It can not only realize the decoupling control of disturbance and tracking terms but also enhance the disturbance immunity, robustness and rapidity of the controller. Finally, an 18−level MMC system model is built based on Matlab (9.12.0.1884302 (R2022a)) & Simulink (R2022a), and the circulation suppression effects of stable operation and voltage sudden change are simulated and compared, which verifies the suppression effect of the improved control strategy on negative sequence current circulation, which lays a theoretical and application foundation for the sustainable development of the offshore wind power industry.

Conventional energy resource problems made power system planners apply more renewable energy sources (RESs) in the power system. RESs have a significant impact on fulfilling the world's energy demand, protecting the environment at least in the exploration phase, and providing energy reliability as well as security for the new generation of power grids. In this regard, wind power generation is considered a promising solution. However, by increasing the share of wind power generation units in the power sector, some challenges, such as voltage problems, transient stability, increasing system losses, and line congestions can occur. Consequently, an alternative solution is required to accelerate wind power units' connections to the grid by preventing the problems caused by the penetration of wind power. In this regard, Flexible Alternating Current Transmission Systems (FACTS) devices can play an important role while they can improve power grid dynamic performance. This paper presents a review of the optimization techniques applied to accelerate the penetration of wind energy by exploiting FACTS devices. The topic identifies the objectives and optimization formulations, as well as schemes and models available in the published literature. This survey gives noteworthy insights to the researchers to cover available solutions in these regards. The literature in the field is summarized in different aspects, such as FACTS technology, objective functions, constraints, optimization methods, planning or operation purposes, and load flow types. At each aspect, a comparison is derived to recognize the most important issues. The result of the review is the finding of future work and contributions which can be done in the field of wind energy integration acceleration using FACTS devices and the output of the paper can be used as a guide for researchers to find a new path for research in this area.
The growth of demand, the need for economic efficiency and optimal utilisation of electric power networks and the high cost of construction of new power networks result in inevitable challenges, such as overloading and excessive power transfer along transmission lines, high losses, voltage instability, low power quality, reliability problems and voltage profile problems. To manage the power transmission system, the recently developed Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) can be used for electric transmission networks since it plays an important role in enhancing the static and dynamic performance of power systems. However, location, type and capacity of FACTS devices should be optimised to maximise the resulting benefits. In this paper, different types of FACTS devices are discussed along with their modelling and functions. In addition, the proposed and the compared techniques and approaches in the existing research works, such as analytic approaches, arithmetic programming methods, meta-heuristic optimisation techniques and hybrid methods, are discussed. Analytic approaches have insufficient computation accuracy in determining optimal allocation of FACTS devices and arithmetic programming approaches are often inefficient in managing constrained optimisation problems. However, meta-heuristic approaches are stochastic, population-based optimisation algorithms that are highly efficient in dealing with a multimodal, highly constrained, multi-objective and discrete system. Meta-heuristic techniques are the most commonly used methodologies to determine the optimal allocation of FACTS devices. Furthermore, the utilisation of analytic methods or classical optimisation approaches with meta-heuristic optimisation techniques plays an important role in reducing the search space of the proposed meta-heuristic optimisation technique. In the present paper, an overall review of 50 recent research work studies, including proposed and compared approaches and techniques, objective functions, approaches, the utilised FACTS devices, constraints, contingency conditions and all the analysed and simulated parameters, is provided and discussed in details. In addition, a more weighted discussion of the proposed methods based on meta-heuristic optimisation techniques is provided.
