Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS) is a generic term used to describe a vast new array of advanced power system controllers based upon the power electronics technology.FACTS controllers are set to be revolutionise power transmission systems resulting in transmission networks of increased efficiency and stability. Predictions indicate the next ten years will see the deployment of FACTS controllers across all major power utilities and networks. This book sets out to arm power systems engineers with the necessary tools to implement FACTS controllers in the next generation of power system networks.
The first book to provide comprehensive coverage of FACTS power systems modeling and simulation.
* Detailed coverage of the development of FACTS controllers and guidance on the selection of appropriate equipment
* Computer modelling examples of the FACTS controllers for steady-state and transient stability systems
* Numerous case studies and practical examples
