Dr. Wesam Rohouma presented his paper co-authored with Dr. Robert S. Balog, Ph.D. student Mr. Aaqib Ahmad Peerzada, and Dr. Miroslav M. Begovic entitled “Development of a Capacitor-less D-STATCOM for Power Quality Improvement in Low Voltage Network” at the IEEE 13th International Conference on Compatibility, Power Electronics and Power Engineering (CPE-POWERENG) in Sønderborg, Denmark / 23 – 25 April 2019.
In this paper, a three-phase capacitor-less matrix converter (MC) has been employed as a distribution system static synchronous compensator (D-STATCOM) to provide reactive power compensation in the low voltage distribution network. To achieve
