Abstract

As a result of FACTS controllers' actual installations, advantages and utility applications, this paper provides a wide range of information. Detailed details on the development of these devices and the first utility installation/demonstration of FACTS devices are provided. Then, a thorough list of important FACTS installations across the globe is shown. Additionally, the article examines how these gadgets might benefit the user and how much they will cost. Various FACTS devices may be used in a deregulated market, according to the report. The FACTS controllers are likewise the subject of discussion. Advanced FACTS controllers have higher losses than their traditional counterparts, and thus must be taken into consideration when designing future power systems. FACTS controller examples and analysis are provided for each major controller in the study.
