“…Significant proportions of wealthy nations have established renewable energy objectives for electricity generation and are implementing policies to accomplish these goals [10–13]. For instance, the Australian government has targeted 33,000 Gown of renewable power output by 2020, accounting for around 23.5 percent of total power generation [14, 15]. Solar‐PV and wind output both achieved phenomenal average annual growth, among the leading renewable resources [16, 17–20].…”

Recently, there is vast progress in the integration of renewable energy generators (REGs) into the power grid. The reactive power, which is indeed a fundamental power system factor is being influenced highly by the renewable power penetration levels. As a consequence, this has paved the way toward the generation of steady-state voltage and dynamic/transient stability issues. Therefore, to provide a sustainable and dependable power grid, it is indeed important to maintain and control adequate reactive power reserves. This study introduces a comprehensive literature survey on "management of reactive power in renewable-rich power networks". A total of 75 research publications have been collected for this study, and a concise summary of each article is offered. The articles are categorized according to the types of REGs used, type of control, grid code consideration, controller device, implementation tools, grid type, load type as well as various reactive power support systems. In addition, this study examines the advantages and drawbacks of existing models. The performance recorded in each of the collected papers are discussed. Ultimately, the most critical challenges related to management of reactive power in renewable-rich power grids are identified, along with some essential methodological suggestions for the electricity sector, regulators, and research scientists.

“…In [9] and [10], the active and reactive power control of the inverter was realized. In [11], to prevent the voltage rise at the grid connection point of the PV systems, the reactive power adjusted through the inverter's reactive current control. In article [12], the reactive power of the inverter was controlled by the Quasi Sinusoidal Waveform method.…”

One of the most studied and funded renewable energy sources is solar energy, all over the world. Solar panels are used to obtain electrical energy from the sun. They should be used effectively due to their expensive structure and challenging installation. However, as the sun light only reaches to the earth during daylight hours, solar systems cannot generate active power during the night, or in cases where daylight is not enough, the whole power capacity of the solar inverters have not been used. In this study; it was shown that in addition to the active power generation during the daytime hours, the solar systems were able to generate reactive power with the remaining capacity of the inverter. Thereby adjusting the grid voltage was provided by the solar system's reactive power control. Designed solar system generates completely reactive power at nights. Thus, the efficiency of the solar systems has been increased by ensuring that the solar systems have used to keep the grid voltage within the values, which stated in the standards, by producing reactive power as well as active power. Matlab/Simulink was used to model the system when using hysteresis band method for system control.
