This paper proposed an approach to determine optimal location of SVC (Static Var Compensator) to improve the voltage profile and maximize system loadability in power networks connected to a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG)-based wind farm. A variable reactance model for SVC is presented in steady state studies and implemented in the load flow program with embedded Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS) devices. The continuation power flow method is used to determine optimal location of SVC and steady state stability margin, based on closing to point of voltage collapse. As an important result in this paper, we obtained an optimal location of SVC devices on wind farm by calculating the new indices such as maximum loading point (MLP) and mega watt margin (MWM). A case study and simulation are done on modified IEEE14 bus test system.
