Abstract

This paper presents a modelling and simulation approach using the Electrical Transient Analyzer Program software to evaluate the magnitude and effects of harmonics from varying RES into the transmission system. An analytical technique was developed to estimate and quantify the harmonic power flow and losses amplification on the transmission lines. The efficiency of the proposed approach is implemented on nondistorted Garver's 6 bus and IEEE 24 bus test systems. The developed technique can quantitatively estimate harmonic contributions from RES.
