    Abstract:

    Renewable energy sources connected in distribution systems utilizing power electronics devices to interface lead to various power quality problems. This chapter presents a review on power quality issues associated with the grid-connected renewable energy systems and mitigation techniques. To mitigate the power quality issues, an effective role is played by power electronic devices and custom power devices such as active power filters (APFs) and flexible AC transmission systems (FACTs). This chapter also discusses IEC and IEEE standards for grid-connected renewable energy system.
