Improvement of Voltage profile by Integrating Renewable Generation Units at weak bus locations of the System

The Grid consists of higher rating sources and transmission system that  supports local loads. The grid operates at voltages in the range of 66kV-132kV and transmits power in MW to smaller or longer distance locations. Due to higher rating power system the power quality issues are also more. For our consideration an IEEE 14 bus interconnected system is represented as grid operating at higher rated values. The weak bus of the interconnected system is determined by Fast voltage stability index (FVSI) and load flow analysis using Newton-Raphson method available in MATLAB software. The weak buses are integrated with renewable power generation units like PV plant and wind farm improving the bus characteristics. This paper presents a comparative analysis with and without the RGUs in the system. Improvisation of the parameters like power loss, reduced conventional power consumption, power factor and voltage magnitudes are validated through time domain simulations.
