Abstract

This paper presents the analyses a real-time 10.765-MVA distribution network in Kayathar in Tuticorin district in the state of Tamilnadu, India. Recently the wind energy is the fastest increasing and most gifted renewable energy sources, among them because it is voluminous, cheap, inexhaustible, widely distributed, clean and climate benign. Renewable energy sources like wind and solar power to make a Distributed Generation (DG). The major problem nowadays in Power sector is losses within the distribution network. The Load Flow Analysis (LFA) and Short Circuit Analysis (SCA) is that the more efficient tool to see the performance of electric power network. Simulations are performed with Static Var Compensator (SVC) FACTS device to calculate the 3 cases to study the impact of wind in three totally different eventualities of macro level by exploitation of an Electrical Transient Analysis Program (ETAP) software.
