Abstract: This paper aims to provide solution to mitigate the voltage variations in critical load caused by the high penetration of DGs into distribution system using Electric Springs (ES). In this regard, there is a need for its exploration with various converter circuits. The improvised topology opens new avenues in the renewable energy powered micro grids for the implementation of ES with a Multi-Level Inverter (MLI) comprising a voltage balancing circuit providing a better quality of power system stability and voltage regulation. This paper captures the voltage dynamics of distribution system dominated by Renewable variability for varying reactive power of the DGs and constantly changing consumer demands. These are analyzed and explained using voltage profiles and power flows in Matlab/Simulink environment. It is practically shown that with the developed ES topology %THD in the system is conspicuously reduced and voltage regulation is seamlessly improved.
