How can solid-state transformers improve power quality?

In general, various control methods are used in solid-state transformers, which can also improve power quality problems. In Reference 106, a new model for solid-state transformers is proposed; one of its advantages is better power factor correction and voltage regulation.

Why do we need a transformer in a power system?

In general, in the power system, traditional transformers are used to step up/step down the voltage. But these transformers do not have the ability to compensate for voltage sag and swell, reactive power, fault isolation, and so on. But with SST we will be able to overcome these drawbacks.

Does a three-phase solid-state transformer improve power quality?

In References 103, 110, a mathematical model of a three-phase solid-state transformer is presented that investigates the effect of SST on power quality improvement.

Can solid-state transformers be used in smart grid applications?

Studies show that the various characteristics of solid-state transformers have led to much consideration as potential transformers in smart grid applications, the integration of distributed generation sources, modern traction systems, and so on.

Can a 100 kVA transformer less intelligent power substation be integrated with a battery?

The system of 100 kVA Transformer less Intelligent Power Substation (TIPS) in the paper is investigated when it is integrated with the DESD modeled through a battery. Electric vehicles (EV), as the future of automobiles, require charging stations for their implementation.

Can a cascaded multilevel converter based solid state transformer share power?

A cost effective power sharing strategy for a cascaded multilevel converter based solid state transformer. In Proceedings of the 2013 IEEE Energy Conversion Congress and Exposition, Denver, CO, USA, 15–19 September 2013; pp. 372–379. [Google Scholar]
