        abstract = {A Unified Power Flow Controllers (UPFC) are a powerful energy management tool that effectively regulates both reactive and active power in electrical transmission lines. They can be employed as a shunt and series compensator. Reducing voltage sag and swell is the main objective of UPFC in order to improve power system stability. Its circuit architecture combines an inverter and a rectifier to enable dynamic control of power flow. Through real-time voltage control, UPFC is implemented in a MATLAB/Simulink ecosystem to improve power quality. The analysis of response to frequency, voltage deviations, or reactive power support in the simulation results confirms UPFC's capacity to suppress fluctuations. UPFC guarantees quick stabilization in the event of system errors or disruptions, much surpassing systems without it. By reducing voltage level and reactive power variability, this study demonstrates how well UPFC maintains power system stability, optimizes voltage control, and increases energy transmission efficiency.},
