The application provides a multifunctional static synchronous compensator
system, comprising: a plurality of three-
phase converter valves, input ends of each three-
phase converter valve being connected to a common
DC bus; an
energy storage valve, being connected in parallel with the three-
phase converter valve, and the plurality of three-phase converter valves sharing the
energy storage valve through the common
DC bus; a switch breaker device, being arranged between the three-phase converter valve and the
energy storage valve; and a
control unit, being connected with the plurality of three-phase converter valves, the energy storage valve and the switch breaker device respectively. The application also provides a method for operating the multifunctional static synchronous compensator
system. The multifunctional static synchronous compensator
system provided by the application adopts back-to-back converter valves, shares energy storage elements through a common
DC bus, and connects two AC buses to the two sides of the converter valve, so that the system can support the two
AC power grids, greatly save the installation capacity of the energy storage elements in the energy storage valve, and provide power
interconnection between the two
AC power grids and play a role in tidal flow control.
