报告内容简介：The concept of FACTS (flexible ac transmission systems) was envisioned in the late of 1980s. The technology consists of a variety of power electronic devices with the aim of controlling both power and voltage at a certain location of the electricity grids during disturbances. In general, the FACTS devices were invented to improve the existing transmission line capacity and provide a controllable power flow for a selected transmission direction. In this presentation some case studies for SMES, UPFC and STATCOM and their applications in power systems will be covered.
