Design and Control of Active Power Filters Towards the Decarbonisation of Smart Grid Networks

Design and Control of Active Power Filters towards the Decarbonisation of Smart Grid Networks helps readers optimize grid stability and power quality using active power filters in transitioning decarbonized power systems moving from high voltage to low voltage distributed smart networks. The work opens with an extensive foundation in in grid stability and power quality optimization, but then goes on to discuss advanced design, control, integration and placement considerations for APFs for smart grids with high penetration of VRE and EV. Integration topologies and the placement of APFs in these VRE integrated networks are also discussed. Finally, applied solutions on design, control and integration of APFs in microgrid networks are presented before parallel operation and distributed design and control issues are reviewed. Numerous case studies support the work, and a expansive discussion of future trends for APFs in smart grids rounds out the content.
