Enhancing Voltage Stability with SVC

The application of a Static Var Compensator (SVC) to enhance voltage stability in a power system

You are now following this Submission

This MATLAB code presents an implementation of an SVC, a device used for reactive power control in electrical networks to improve voltage stability. The code defines system parameters, including nominal load voltage and load reactive power, and SVC parameters like voltage magnitude and reactive power output. The SVC current injection is calculated, and the load voltage is updated with SVC compensation. The Voltage Stability Index (VSI) is computed for both cases - with and without SVC - to assess the effectiveness of the compensation. A plot is generated to visualize the voltage phasors before and after SVC compensation.
