Special Session on Advanced Power Electronics for Power Quality in Distributed Power Systems

The integration of nonlinear devices (motor drives, renewable energy generators) into the grid reduces its power quality, performance and reliability. Various power electronics converters for harmonic compensation were recently introduced. Great efforts are continuously deployedon the structural and control levels to achieve optimized cost-effective solutions for power quality enhancement. This session is intended to give an insight on the latest studies concerning the design and development of power electronics converters dedicated to power quality improvement in modern power systems.
