    Abstract :

    Induction generators are generally used for power generation in remote areas or in a region where the grid cannot provide supply. One of the major problems encountered by induction generators is fault. So we need a proper compensation technique to overcome this barrier. A solution to this problem is to introduce Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) on its load side. A new technique for the control of gate pulse to VSI of UPFC with the help of Power Oscillation Damping (POD) controller is suggested in this paper. The whole system is modeled in MATLAB/SIMULINK Platform. This paper deals with the power quality improvement and reduction in harmonics by FACTS devices, mainly Unified Power Flow Controllers. The suggested technique presents good quality results in the system.
