Abstract
In recent year power quality is reduced due to harmonics as well as demand of power generation so for that compensation of reactive power is needed. This paper deals with reactive power compensation techniques. In this paper linear load produce voltage drop and non-linear load produce harmonics is reduced by using STATCOM

Keywords
voltage source converter; Statcom; PI controller.
