The advanced static synchronous compensator or Ad-STATCOM is a reactive voltage control device which when connected to the bus provides reactive power support by maintaining proper voltage level at each bus terminal. A new control scheme for optimizing the STATCOM based on Stochastic Machine Learning Algorithm is presented in this paper. The design of STATCOM controller for controlling reactive power does not depend on the Power System Parameters. All the design parameters were updated in this paper through a constant stochastic regression optimization. The design parameters only depend on the local values which are collected from history sheet or previous such case. A MATLAB Simulink model was designed and the model shows effectiveness on maintaining voltage level and thereby avoiding the voltage collapse.
