5.3 Summary
A new probabilistic approach to assess the power rating of an IPFC and STATCOM device has been proposed. The approach results in considerable saving by lowering the required power ratings of the converters used in the design of the IPFC and STATCOM systems. Both analytical prediction and experimental results confirm the potential benefits the new approach will bring to bear, in terms of costs saving. Very importantly, these assessments have been achieved with a very high level of confidence, which is no less than 99.9%. Thus, the reliability of the system is not compromised by the new approach.
