Abstract

This work develops a hybrid active power filter (HAPF) in this article to operate in conjunction with the energy storage system (ESS), wind power generation system (WPGS), and solar energy system (SES). It employs three level shunt voltage source converters (VSC) connected to the DC-bus. Optimization of the gain values of the fractional-order proportional integral derivative controller (FOPIDC) and parameter values of the HAPF is achieved using the Jaya grey wolf hybrid algorithm (GWJA). The primary objectives of this study, aimed at enhancing power quality (PQ), include: (1) ensuring swift stabilization of DC link capacitor voltage (DCLCV); (2) reducing harmonics and improving power factor (PF); (3) maintaining satisfactory performance under different combinations of loads like EV charging load, non linear load and solar irradiation conditions. The proposed controller's performance is evaluated through three test scenarios featuring different load configurations and irradiation levels. Additionally, the HAPF is subjected to design using other optimization algorithms such as genetic algorithm (GA), particle swarm optimization (PSO), and ant colony optimization (ACO) to assess their respective contributions to PQ improvement.
