    Abstract: A system and method are provided for performing reactive power control. The system includes a power converter and a controller coupled to the power converter. The power converter is configured to convert a first form of electric power generated from the power source to a second form of electric power suitable to be distributed by the electrical grid. The controller is configured to monitor the electric power transmitted between the power converter and the electrical grid. The controller is further configured to decouple a positive sequence component and a negative sequence component from the monitored electric power. The controller is further configured to perform a positive reactive power control and a negative reactive power control with respect to the decoupled positive and negative sequence components. The controller is further configured to transmit a control signal to the power converter based on the positive and negative reactive power control.
