Abstract
- This research paper aims to investigate the application of a unified power flow controller (UPFC) for relieving power congestion on a 500/230 kV grid, Power congestion occurs when the demand for electrical power exceeds the transmission capacity of the grid resulting in potential stability issues and voltage fluctuations. The UPFC is a flexible and advanced power electronic device that can regulate power flow and voltage levels in real-time hence offering a potential solution to alleviate congestion. This study explores the principles of UPFC operation its control strategies and the impact of its installation on power system stability and reliability. The research methodology involves computer simulations and analysis of the results obtained. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
