AbstractThis paper presents the integration of wind energy conversion system (WECS) with photovoltaic (PV) solar farm (SF) which acts as flexible ac transmission system controller-static synchronous compensator during night time, to regulate the point of common coupling voltage and to rectify faults when SF is not producing any active power. The proposed control will enable increased connections of WECS. MATLAB/Simulink based simulation results are presented for validation of the system
