Unified Power Flow Controller

Rural Power Grid Unified Power Flow Controller

In rural and remote areas, where infrastructure is weak and power supply conditions are complex, the electricity grid capacity is insufficient, leading to issues such as line losses and inadequate voltage at power terminals. To address this problem, technical solutions such as increasing transformer capacity and retrofitting power grid lines can be implemented. However, the use of the Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) in rural power networks can enhance the load-bearing capacity of distribution substations, improve the stability of low-voltage distribution networks, optimize voltage distribution along distribution lines, and reduce voltage drops. This approach effectively resolves these challenges and proves to be more economically viable than traditional rural power network upgrades.
