Hybrid UPQC arrangement for power quality improvement

Abstract

In the forthcoming gap, throughout the world storage systems will carry the leading role, the reason is of providing energy in distant places. The utilization of storage elements in almost all applications are tremendously changed by the researchers. Here, mentioning the theory to increase the quality benefits in all corners of power utilization. By summing potential elements such as Unified power Quality conditioner, fuel cell to suppress the problems at the consumer points. UPQC is capable to supporting dynamic conditions at combined common connection in the system. To achieve the consumer expectations in our country, Power Quality is a big subject as there are frequent power variations, outages and frequency. Hence, it is required to take crucial steps in the direction of the growth. This hybridization of different elements gives the research in the angle of improving several issues, for unbalanced distribution system. This paper comes up with a configuration of UPQC that incorporates DC –to-DC converter along with the fuel - cell at the DC-link side, the whole setup run under MATLAB environment.
