Control of MMC-Based STATCOM as an Effective Interface between Energy Sources and the Power Grid

This paper presents a dynamic model of modular multilevel converters (MMCs), which are considered as an effective interface between energy sources and the power grid. By improving the converter performance, appropriate reactive power compensation is guaranteed. Modulation indices are calculated base...
