Author Name : Pankaj Govind Hiray, B. E. Kushare
Abstract : This paper analyzes the supercapacitor based voltage support system for medium voltage AC system. For the last decade supercapacitors have become an integral part of low voltage power electronic systems where high power density from dc storage device is required frequently. So far their use has been limited to delivering or absorbing pulses of power during transient operation, such as starting up of an electrical motor, storing regenerated energy or supplying instant power in low voltage range within small scale distributed generation system. Not much work has been done in investigating performance of supercapacitor storage in medium voltage ac systems subject to extreme conditions such as sudden load demand in the MW range or network faults. The power source has been designed to ride through 2 seconds voltage sag caused either by high load demand or remote system fault. This paper attempts to investigate how efficiently supercapacitor storage can be utilized to meet the power demand in ac grid.
