Popis: This paper presents an intelligent, optimized control approach designed to enhance the quality of power in power grids. It achieves this by integrating a Shunt Active Filter (SAF) with a UPQC with a renewable energy source (photovoltaic). The Shunt Active Power Filter (SAPF) is controlled using Ant Colony Optimization (ACO), a warm-based algorithm that draws inspiration from how ants forage for food. This ACO algorithm dynamically tunes the control parameters of the current reference generation mechanism, resulting in improved harmonic compensation. The effectiveness of this ACO-based controller is measured against conventional Proportional Integral (PI) and Fuzzy Logic Controllers (FLC). The simulation results clearly demonstrate the outstanding performance of the proposed ACO-SAPF. This is evident through a considerable reduction in Harmonic Distortion (THD), a more rapid dynamic behavior, and improved quality of voltage and quality of current, even when load and generation conditions fluctuate.

Abstrakt:This paper presents an intelligent, optimized control approach designed to enhance the quality of power in power grids.

The Shunt Active Power Filter (SAPF) is controlled using Ant Colony Optimization (ACO), a warm-based algorithm that draws inspiration from how ants forage for food. This ACO algorithm dynamically tunes the control parameters of the current reference generation mechanism, resulting in improved harmonic compensation. The effectiveness of this ACO-based controller is measured against conventional Proportional Integral (PI) and Fuzzy Logic Controllers (FLC). The simulation results clearly demonstrate the outstanding performance of the proposed ACO-SAPF. This is evident through a considerable reduction in Harmonic Distortion (THD), a more rapid dynamic behavior, and improved quality of voltage and quality of current, even when load and generation conditions fluctuate.
