    Abstract: In this paper analysis the UPFC integrated with energy storage devices for improvement of system stability compensation. Before that, used traditional UPFC is to control all transmission line parameters simultaneously or selectively but don’t have appropriate control for throughout system. During large transients; traditional UPFC have restricted c... Show More
